90-DAY COMPLICATION (ANY) RATE, BY HOSPITAL<br />

Figure 7.10 shows the association betwe<strong>en</strong> the <strong>volume</strong> of interv<strong>en</strong>tions by hospital and<br />

the rate of complication within 90 days. The horizontal line repres<strong>en</strong>ts the overall 90day<br />

complication rate over all hospitals i.e. 3.2%. Three hospitals are located outsi<strong>de</strong> the<br />

variability limits and a fourth one is isolated far from the funnel plot. This latest hospital<br />

belonged to the third tertile with 141 TKR pati<strong>en</strong>ts of whom 36 (25.5%) <strong>en</strong>countered a<br />

complication within 90 days (35 with a co<strong>de</strong> 996.7x complication due to the internal<br />

<strong>de</strong>vice and one with a co<strong>de</strong> 996.4 mechanical complication of the <strong>de</strong>vice). Such a<br />

manifest outlier would need to be further investigated by means of an audit.<br />
