New York’s Statewide Planning Research (SPARCS) administrative database used identify all 28 207 patients whom endarterectomy principal procedure performed in York State hospitals January 1, 1990, December 31, 1995. Methods—A statistical model developed predict mortality using age, admission status, several conditions found be associated with higher-than-average This then calculate risk-adjusted rates various intersections ranges. Results—Risk-adjusted ranged from 1.96% (95%confidence interval, 1.47 2.57) having surgeons CE volumes <5 ≤1...
