Hospital Standardized Mortality Ratio
ثبت نشده
چکیده
HSMR is calculated as a ratio of the actual number of deaths to the expected number of deaths among patients in acute care hospitals. An HSMR of 100 indicates there is no difference between the hospital’s mortality rate and the overall average rate. Therefore a rate greater than 100 means the hospital’s mortality rate is higher than the overall average and a rate lower than 100 means the hospital’s mortality rate is lower than the overall average.

Variation in Risk-Standardized Mortality of Stroke among Hospitals in Japan
Despite recent advances in care, stroke remains a life-threatening disease. Little is known about current hospital mortality with stroke and how it varies by hospital in a national clinical setting in Japan. Using the Diagnosis Procedure Combination database (a national inpatient database in Japan), we identified patients aged ≥ 20 years who were admitted to the hospital with a primary diagnosi...

Objectives The aim of this study was to compare the discriminatory power of two prognostic scores, SAPS 3 and APACHE II, in surgical patients. Methods Retrospectively collected data from all surgical patients admitted to a Brazilian hospital ICU between January 2011 and December 2013 were analyzed. The standardized mortality ratio (SMR) was computed for mortality prediction. The predictive abil...
