Increasingly, many studies in acute care surgery are using propensity score analysis to address selection bias when using observational data. This manuscript addresses methodological considerations and pitfalls in performing propensity score analysis.

Would it surprise you to know >10% of patients in the TQIP NTDB erroneously have units of blood reported instead of volume? How do you think this impacts research being done with TQIP?

[Michael Cobler-Lichter, MD @mdcobler]

@MaartenvSmeden I think this is an oversimplification and the truth depends on the dataset. Event fraction of 0.2 is different than 0.02, and the decision to correct for imbalance needs to account for this. Effects on correction on discrimination and calibration differ based on this difference

Have you or a loved one been hurt by a hospital administrator telling you that VTE is a never event?
