RELATION BETWEEN SURGEON VOLUME AND 90-DAY COMPLICATION<br />
(ANY) RATE<br />
As pres<strong>en</strong>ted in Table 7.32, the association betwe<strong>en</strong> a 10% increase in surgeon <strong>volume</strong><br />
and complication rate was an effect of -2.29% (-3.96%, -0.62%), without adjusting for<br />
case-mix differ<strong>en</strong>ces. Case-mix has no <strong>impact</strong> of since the effect sustains after such casemix<br />
adjustm<strong>en</strong>t although the <strong>de</strong>crease is slightly less important (-2.16; -3.82%, -0.5%).<br />
Both effects were statistically significant. Similar to the results by hospital, odds for<br />
complication are worse for wom<strong>en</strong>.<br />
