A new tool called EPoSSI helps surgical teams successfully launch quality improvement projects by improving planning, according to the American College of Surgeons.
A new framework called EPoSSI, developed by Dr. Clifford Y. Ko and colleagues at the American College of Surgeons, aims to boost the success of small surgical quality improvement projects by addressing weak planning, a common reason for failure.
Testing showed teams using EPoSSI met all 26 planning criteria, compared to an average of 6.3 without it.
The tool offers a nine-step, action-oriented guide across five phases, designed for use by surgeons and residents alone or in teams, and works with methods like Lean or Six Sigma.
It is publicly available on the ACS website as a low-burden, practical checklist to strengthen project foundations.
