Which term relates to the computation of improvement potential?

• A. Exclusion Criteria
• B. Improvement Computation
• C. Upper Body Dressing
• D. OBQI Process

Answer: (B)

The concept being tested is how improvement potential is quantified in the OBQI workflow. The best term for this is improvement computation, because it names the specific step where data from assessments is analyzed to estimate how much a patient can realistically improve in a given domain. This calculation informs whether there is meaningful improvement potential and helps guide goal setting and care planning.

Think of the broader process as the overall OBQI cycle, which includes identifying opportunities for improvement, collecting data, and using findings to drive quality actions. Exclusion criteria describe who is eligible for analysis, and upper body dressing is a clinical task—neither captures the calculation of improvement potential.
