Figure 1. Hospital Rates of VTE Prophylaxis by Caprini Score.

Figure 1

The predicted prophylaxis rate averaged over hospitals is shown by the black line with 95% confidence intervals based on the linear spline random effects model. The observed prophylaxis rate by hospital is shown with the light gray circles and the predicted empirical Bayes mean prophylaxis rate by hospital is shown with the small x’s. Overall rates of prophylaxis plateau after a Caprini score of 5.
