KHKHKH Assign.

The document discusses infection percentages from surgeries and uses a p control chart to analyze the data. It finds that the infection percentage averages 0.68% and that the process is in control since all data points are within the upper and lower control limits. As the process is in control, there is no need for management concern.

1) average % of infection = p_bar = 0.

68%
2)
a. most appropriate chart is p control chart because we want to control the infection
percentage.
b. UCL = p_bar + 3*sqrt ( p_bar*(1-p_bar)/n)
LCL = p_bar + 3*sqrt ( p_bar*(1-p_bar)/n)
n is the sample size here it is no. of surgeries for each month so UCL and LCL will be different
for each month . which i calculated on excel attached.

c) data is plotted in control chart table attached


d) process is in control because all p represented by blue line is within LCL and UCL.

3) since the data is in control hence there is nothing to worry about for management.
