Published: 2006

Abstract

Control chart methods were reviewed in Australian Infection Control in 2001. Since that time there have been improvements in these methods. A major advance has been the incorporation of risk-adjustment. In this article, what we regard to be the most useful control chart techniques currently available are described in a non-technical way. For those who wish to implement these methods, suitable non-mathematical references are included.
