This video introduces PDSA ramps as a tool for learning about a change idea and building confidence in its efficacy while moving toward systemwide implementation. It highlights the importance of collecting data as a change idea is introduced in new contexts to understand if it is actually leading to the desired outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the fifth video in a five-part series focused on deepening improvers\u2019 knowledge of and skills in conducting PDSA cycles to test and refine change ideas designed to improve specific outcomes.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This video delves into key considerations that can guide continued learning and build evidence of the efficacy and reliability of a change idea while scaling. It highlights the use of a PDSA ramp to organize iterative testing cycles as a change idea is gradually introduced into more diverse contexts, focusing on the overarching goal to achieve quality outcomes with reliability at scale. These subsequent cycles of testing in new contexts provide opportunities to learn what processes, structures, and resources are needed to support successful implementation of the change across a system. The video also emphasizes the importance of collecting data to understand whether the change idea is leading to desired outcomes in all contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
