Analysis Level
Temporal Evaluation
Data Source Comparison
  • Multi-Site Analysis

    More than one source of data (i.e., contributing healthcare institution) is analyzed by the check, allowing for the direct comparison of data from each source.

  • Single Site Analysis

    A single source of data (i.e., contributing healthcare institution) is analyzed by the check.

Data Anomaly Method
Exploratory Analysis
Data Visualization
  • Bar Graph

    Output of a diagram in which the value of variables are represented by the height of the bar.

  • Control Chart

    Output of a time-series graph which displays how a process changes over time. Includes a center line, an upper control limit and a lower control limit.
