1 Shaping quality: the use of performance polygons for multidimensional presentation and interpretation of qualitative performance data  T.M. Cook, M. Coupe, T.

2 Fig 1 Stepwise construction of a performance polygon: (a) an outcome is plotted from worst to best, (b) further outcomes are added all radiating from the same origin, (c) the maximal limits of the polygon are completed by joining points indicating ‘best outcomes’ and the index polygon is plotted by joining the performance measures on each outcome spoke (this is usually shaded but is left unshaded for clarity here), and (d) comparator polygons are added.

7 Fig 6 Performance polygons of real postoperative data from one anaesthetist’s own data (self-collected). In (a), these data are presented as absolute data with the individual axes each ranging from 0 to 100. Percentages indicate the anaesthetist’s performance. In (b), the authors have agreed benchmarks with limits representing poor performance (small comparator polygon) and high-quality performance (large comparator polygon). The change in the shape and area of the polygons in (a) and (b) illustrates the importance of choice of comparator data and limits.
