美国外科医生学会认为,一种名为EPOSSI的新工具通过改进规划,帮助外科手术小组成功启动质量改进项目。 A new tool called EPoSSI helps surgical teams successfully launch quality improvement projects by improving planning, according to the American College of Surgeons.

由Clifford Y. Ko博士和美国外科医生学院同事开发的称为EPOSSI的新框架旨在通过解决规划不力这一失败的共同原因,促进小手术质量改进项目的成功。 A new framework called EPoSSI, developed by Dr. Clifford Y. Ko and colleagues at the American College of Surgeons, aims to boost the success of small surgical quality improvement projects by addressing weak planning, a common reason for failure. 测试显示,使用EPOSSI的测试队符合所有26项规划标准,而没有EPOSSI的平均数为6.3。 Testing showed teams using EPoSSI met all 26 planning criteria, compared to an average of 6.3 without it. 该工具提供分五个阶段的九步、面向行动的指南,供外科医生和居民单独或团队使用,并采用Lean 或Six Sigma等方法。 The tool offers a nine-step, action-oriented guide across five phases, designed for use by surgeons and residents alone or in teams, and works with methods like Lean or Six Sigma. 作为一个简单实用的检查清单, 通过ACS网站公开提供, 以加强项目基础. It is publicly available on the ACS website as a low-burden, practical checklist to strengthen project foundations.
