Abstract

The author reflects on the quality improvement for pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) treatment guidelines. He mentions possible explanations for low adherence of providers such as unawareness of latest guidelines from organizations such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and disagreement with the guidelines' provisions. Moreover, strategies to improve outpatient health care quality are mentioned such as hospital staff training and the use of electronic medical records.
