Here's what I found concerning infection: There's a chart and it has "sepsis - mortality-based rating" for which TVRH gets one star. One star means: "worse than expected"
Search: Sepsis Definition - Diseases and Conditions - Mayo Clinic
"Sepsis is a potentially life-threatening complication of an infection."
Number of cases 901 (Number of cases may not represent total volume.)
Actual Mortality In Hospital: 14.98%
Mortality Within 30 Days: 19.87%
They also have predicted mortality but I'm not sure what that's about. Check it for yourself to make sure the above information is correct. |
Why was the last sentence deleted in the previous post? (I'm referring to the sentence above in bold print)
If anyone doubts the above information they are free to check other sources. I do not wish to call The Villages Hospital as I have more confidence in seeing the information in print.
