Table 3.

Rescaling Approach Using the Z Score

Observed Improvement New %
Process Mean (SD) % Adherence Z Score (Z Scale) Adherence
1 70% (8%) 86 (86 − 70)/8 = 2 1a 94
2 60% (16%) 76 (76 − 60)/16 = 1 1b 92
Composite score (2 + 1)/2 = 1.5 a: (3 + 1)/2 = 2
b: (2 + 2)/2 = 2

In this table, z score = (observed value – mean)/standard deviation (SD).
