Abstract

There are many uses of control charts in health-care monitoring and in public-health surveillance. For example, control charts are used in monitoring and improvement of hospital performance, in monitoring chronic diseases and infectious diseases, and so on. We introduce the Variable Life-Adjusted Display (VLAD) chart and propose the method for choosing control limits of the VLAD chart to give specified in-control properties.

현대 사회에서 건강관리와 공중보건 분야의 이상원인 탐지와 감시를 위하여 관리도 기법을 많이 사용하고 있다 예를 들어, 외과의사의 수술 수행성과의 변화나 만성병과 전염병 등의 비율 변화를 탐지하는데 관리도를 사용할 수 있다. 이 논문에서는 건강관리와 공중보건 분야에서 많이 사용하는 VLAD (variable life-adjusted display) 관리도를 소개하고, 이 관리도에서 관리한계선을 설정하는 방법을 제안하였다.
