Summary: An overview of present-day applications of statistical process control in medical field is given. A general consideration of goals and problems is followed by exemplary presentations of control charts in health care and for the monitoring of technical medical equipment, with a particular focus on Shewhart and Cusum charts. Examples are shown how to derive appropriate target values and control limits for the charts in practice. Further, on-line monitoring procedures for consecutive measurements of a patient's physiological parameters, especially in intensive care units, are described. In this context, statistical techniques based on time series modeling and Kalman filtering are preferred.
