PDSA Process
Plan
Predict what will happen when the Measures to determine if prediction
test is carried out
succeeds
• Resistance from staff and
physicians
•Lack of documentation, delayed initiation
of pitocin
• Lack of follow through
• Inconsistency in following policy
•Utilizing old policies and practices
•Lack of documentation, delayed initiation
of pitocin
•Improved process and improved
outcomes

educated

• Continued physician and nursing education
PDSA Process
Study
Describe the measured results and how they compared to the
predictions
• 2010 YTD: Only one elective induction less than 39 weeks resulted in
NICU admission
• 100% of elective inductions had appropriate documentation prior to
initiation of pitocin.
• Admission to initiation of pitocin within 30 minutes as planned.
PDSA Process
Act
Describe what modifications to the plan will be made for the next
cycle from what you learned
• Physician buy-in for changing criteria to a firm 39 weeks for elective
