Risk-adjusted outcome measurement

The article highlights the need for standardized, uniform mathematical models for risk-adjusted outcome measurement in general surgery.

Limitations

  • Lack of a uniform mathematical equation for individual patient risk factors
  • Increasingly diverse messages with conclusions that are institution dependent
