EP199/#186 Case-mix adjustment in order to accurately compare hospitals regarding complications after cytoreductive surgery for advanced-stage ovarian cancer in the Netherlands
Abstract:Objectives Case-mix factors are patient and tumor characteristics that can influence hospital outcomes. An important gynecological-oncology hospital outcome is the complication rate after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) for patients with advanced-stage ovarian cancer (OC).
