Dr. Rajul Gajjar, Principal of Government Engineering College, Gandhinagar is facing the challenge of transforming the government-managed engineering college to a college with autonomous status. This significant change is contemplated as a part of Technical Education Quality Improvement Programme Phase II (TEQIP II), a government initiative, funded by World Bank. The case presents the operational challenges for improving and sustaining the quality of technical education within the larger transition to autonomous status. It also provides an opportunity to examine the tension between autonomy and governance.

BackgroundTonsillectomy is among the most common and cumulatively expensive surgical procedures in children, with known variations in quality of care. However, evidence on health system interventions to improve quality of care is limited. The Quality-Based Procedures (QBP) programme in Ontario, Canada, introduced fixed episode hospital payment per tonsillectomy and disseminated a perioperative care pathway. We determined the association of this payment and quality improvement programme with tonsillectomy quality of care.MethodsInterrupted time series analysis of children undergoing elective tonsillectomy at community and children’s hospitals in Ontario in the QBP period (1 April 2014 to 31 December 2018) and the pre-QBP period (1 January 2009 to 31 January 2014) using health administrative data. We compared the age-standardised and sex-standardised rates for all-cause tonsillectomy-related revisits within 30 days, opioid prescription fills within 30 days and index tonsillectomy inpatient admission.Results111 411 children underwent tonsillectomy: 51 967 in the QBP period and 59 444 in the pre-QBP period (annual median number of hospitals, 86 (range 77–93)). Following QBP programme implementation, revisit rates decreased for all-cause tonsillectomy-related revisits (0.48 to −0.18 revisits per 1000 tonsillectomies per month; difference −0.66 revisits per 1000 tonsillectomies per month (95% CI −0.97 to −0.34); p<0.0001). Codeine prescription fill rate continued to decrease but at a slower rate (−4.81 to −0.11 prescriptions per 1000 tonsillectomies per month; difference 4.69 (95% CI 3.60 to 5.79) prescriptions per 1000 tonsillectomies per month; p<0.0001). The index tonsillectomy inpatient admission rate decreased (1.12 to 0.23 admissions per 1000 tonsillectomies per month; difference −0.89 (95% CI −1.33 to −0.44) admissions per 1000 tonsillectomies per month; p<0.0001).ConclusionsThe payment and quality improvement programme was associated with several improvements in quality of care. These findings may inform jurisdictions planning health system interventions to improve quality of care for tonsillectomy and other paediatric procedures.

This research focuses on the management of madrasa-based education quality improvement strategies in North Sulawesi. The research was conducted at three madrasah, namely Manado State Madrasah Tsanawiyah (MTs Negeri 1 Manado), Bitung State Madrasah Tsanawiyah (MTs Negeri 1 Bitung) and Kotamobagu State Madrasah Tsanawiyah (MTs Negeri 1 Kotamobagu). The research method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results of this study indicate that the Strategic Planning for improving the quality of madrasa-based education at MTs Negeri 1 Manado, MTs Negeri 1 Bitung and MTs Negeri 1 Kotamobagu City is carried out by involving all components of madrasas and stakeholders in an effort to improve the quality of madrasa education while still referring to Islamic values as a characteristic of madrasas. The implementation of the strategy to improve the quality of madrasa-based education is realized by implementing work programs in planning for improving the quality of madrasas such as education and training/training, workshops, seminars, organized by the government, ministries and universities. The impact of implementing strategies to improve the quality of education in madrasas can be seen from a number of indicators such as increased learning outcomes, which can be seen from academic and non-academic achievements achieved by students in various activities, and competitions.

BackgroundPatients with nasogastric/nasoenteric tube (NGT/NET) are at increased risk of adverse outcomes due to errors occurring during oral medication preparation and administration.AimTo implement a quality improvement programme to reduce the proportion of errors in oral medication preparation and administration through NGT/NET in adult patients.MethodsAn observational study was carried out, comparing outcome measures before and after implementation of the integrated quality programme to improve oral medication preparation and administration through NGT/NET. A collaborative approach based on Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle was used and feedback was given during multidisciplinary meetings.InterventionsGood practice guidance for oral medication preparation and administration through NGT/NET was developed and implemented at the hospital sites; nurses were given formal training to use the good practice guidance; a printed list of oral medications that should never be crushed was provided to all members of the multidisciplinary team, and a printed table containing therapeutic alternatives for drugs that should never be crushed was provided to prescribers at the prescribing room.ResultsImprovement was observed in the following measures: crushing enteric-coated tablets and mixing drugs during medication preparation (from 54.9% in phase I to 26.2% in phase II; p 0.0010) and triturating pharmaceutical form of modified action or dragee (from 32.8 in phase I to 19.7 in phase II; p 0.0010). Worsening was observed though in the following measures: crush compressed to a fine and homogeneous powder (from 7.4%% in phase I to 95% phase II; p 0.0010) and feeding tube obstruction (from 41.8% in phase I to 52.5% phase II; p 0.0950).ConclusionOur results highlight how a collaborative quality improvement approach based on PDSA cycles can meet the challenge of reducing the proportion of errors in oral medication preparation and administration through NGT/NET in adult patients. Some changes may lead to unintended consequences though. Thus, continuous monitoring for these consequences will help caregivers to prevent poor patient outcomes.
