A hospital's quality of care is generally assessed by a review of individual records. This study used unadjusted and risk-adjusted complication rates to measure the quality of care for hospitals that perform coronary artery bypass surgery or angioplasty. Hospitals differed greatly in their complication rates. Only a small percentage of this difference was due to differences in the risks that patients faced.
医院的护理质量通常通过审查个体病历进行评估。本研究使用未经调整和风险调整的并发症发生率来衡量进行冠状动脉搭桥手术或血管成形术的医院的护理质量。各医院的并发症发生率差异很大。这种差异中只有一小部分是由于患者面临的风险不同所致。
