pubmed:abstractText |
Mortality rates vary widely among dialysis facilities even after adjustment with standardized mortality ratios (SMRs). This variation may occur because top-performing facilities use practices not shared by others, because the SMR fails to capture key patient characteristics, or both. Practices were identified that distinguish top- from bottom-performing facilities by SMR.
