1,073,122 patients admitted to Massachusetts hospitals corresponding to 36 hospital standardised mortality ratio diagnosis groups that account for 80% of in-hospital deaths nationally. Adjusted in-hospital mortality rates and hospital standardised mortality ratios. The significant factors determining in-...
Data of hospital standardised mortality ratio (HSMR) of 152 English NHS Trusts for 2005/6 were re-analysed./p pResults/p pA close examination of the information reveals a pattern which is consistent with a statistical phenomenon, discovered by the French mathematician de Moivre nearly 300 years...
“The latest figures show that the Hospital Standardised Mortality Ratio (HSMR) has fallen by 13.2% since the first quarter of 2014 and that there were 20% fewer deaths in the latest quarter than predicted. “While not being the only factor in the reduction, the safety progra...
The hospital standardised mortality ratio: a powerful tool for Dutch hospitals to assess their quality of care? To use the hospital standardised mortality ratio (HSMR), as a tool for Dutch hospitals to analyse their death rates by comparing their risk-adjusted mortal... B Jarman,D Pieter,dVAA...
The death rate was measured by three different indicators: the hospital standardised mortality ratio (HMSR); the summaryhospitallevel mortality indicator (SHMI); and the monthly crude mortality. The new target was associated with a fall in all three indicators of between 4.5% and 4.8%. ...
Adjusted hospital mortality for 2007-8 (the year the care bundles were introduced) was then compared with the previous year using the hospital standardised mortality ratio (HSMR). The HMSR is a comparative measure of a hospital's overall mortality. It focuses on a group of diagnoses that acco...
Standardised weekly rates were estimated with a Poisson regression model. Only for Tuscany, mortality risk at 30 days after hospitalisation was calculated with the Kaplan–Meier estimator. Mortality risk ratios were calculated using Cox proportional regression models. Results Nineteen thousand two ...
Six of the quality measures are based on standardised mortality rates, seven on standardised readmission, revisions and redo rates, and three are derived from surveys of patients' experiences. The mortality, readmission, revision, and redo measures allow for the case mix of the hospital. Five of...
Fig. 2 shows trends in the Standardised Utilisation Rate (rather than the ratio) by year and deprivation group, again showing a clear relationship between deprivation and standardised utilisation. The fall in utilisation in the last year of our sample is likely to be due to truncation, i.e. ...
