Why the study?
Do hospital-level quality improvement activities (self-measurement or system changes) improve adherence to evidence-based care processes for patients with acute myocardial infarction?
Do hospital-level quality improvement activities (self-measurement or system changes) improve adherence to evidence-based care processes for patients with acute myocardial infarction?
Hospital-level quality improvement activities, specifically self-measurement and systematic changes, significantly improve adherence to evidence-based care processes for patients with acute myocardial infarction.

Hospital QI tracking and changes were associated with better AMI process adherence; leaves open causal confirmation in randomized trials.
Ellerbeck et al. (2000) studied this question.
