Abstract: The purpose is to introduce the demand for the quality movement practice in hospital care. We show both the need and application of quality monitoring, especially the need monitoring activities having auto correlated data flows of which there are many in the hospital environment. The goal is to control the flow of quality care data in the dynamic behavior of these systems of acre in hospitals. These monitoring systems are designed to control and improve changes in the hospital care environment. Copyright Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2014
