Lean Six Sigma (LSS) has been recognized as an effective management tool for improving healthcare performance. Here, LSS was adopted to reduce the risk of healthcare‐associated infections (HAIs), a critical quality parameter in the healthcare sector.
Oct 22, 2024 · Lean application demonstrated a significant protective role on healthcare-associated infections rate (RR 0.50; 95% C.I.: 0.38-0.66) with significant impact on central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) (RR 0.47; 95% C.I.: 0.28-0.82).
Results: Hospital adoption of Lean was associated with higher Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) patient experience scores (b = 3.35, p < 0.0001) on a scale of 100–300 but none of the other 9 performance measures. The degree of Lean implementation measured by the number of units throughout the hospital using
