Mortality and complication rates after total hip replacement (THR) are inversely associated with the volume of THRs performed at hospitals and by individual surgeons. It is not clear, however, why a higher volume of such procedures is associated with better outcomes. We evaluated the contribution of hospital structural characteristics to the volume-outcome relationship in THR by examining the rates and predictors of postoperative complications.
