Measurement and Review

The key tasks likely to be undertaken during the measurement and review phase in your project are:

• Identification and agreement on the evidence base;
• Determination of the measures of performance;
• Design of the methods to collect the data;
• Development of the information system necessary to store the data;
• The feedback process; and
• Interpretation/review of the data.

The time required to complete these tasks will vary across projects, depending on both local factors and the chosen patient cohort.

This section describes the key tasks involved in the measurement and review phase and provides practical tips to assist in decision-making and implementation.
