This article is a description of a tool that improvers, researchers, administrators, and IRBs can use to evaluate a proposal and determine whether is a QI (and thus does not require IRB oversight) or has elements of research (and does require IRB oversight.)
The tool is derived from the SQUIRE guidelines (www.squire-statement.org).
Several participants at the QI-IQ conference on Nov 23 had inquiries about this issue. This is one tool that may be helpful.
