Abstract
Across all healthcare settings, it is important not only to provide safe and effective healthcare, but also to ensure that it is timely, patient-centered, efficient and equitable. There is a wide variability in neonatal and perinatal outcomes in India and other developing countries, with certain units demonstrating clinical outcomes that match the developed world, while others showing higher than expected mortality and morbidity. Collaborative quality improvement initiatives offer a pragmatic way to improve performance of healthcare delivery within and between neonatal units. Variations in application of evidence-based healthcare process and dependent health outcomes can be identified and targeted for improvement in quality improvement cycles. We herein describe the concept of Collaborative quality improvement, and the success stories of the best-known Collaborative quality improvement initiatives across the world. We also highlight the process and progress of creating Collaborative quality improvement in our country.
