What was the aim of the first Campaign initiative (100,000 Lives Campaign)?
The 100,000 Lives Campaign was a nationwide initiative of the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) with a focus on significantly reducing mortality in American health care, which ran from December 2004 through June 2006. Building on the successful work of health care providers from all over the world, it introduced proven best practices to help participating hospitals across the country with the goal of extending or saving as many as 100,000 lives.
