Is Higher Surgeon Volume Associated With Lower Complication and Revision Risk After Distal Radius Fracture Surgery? A Population-based Cohort Study of 13,389 Patients
Listen to this summary
This study investigates the relationship between surgeon annual case volume and the risk of complications and revision surgery following distal radius fracture surgery. The authors found that complication rates plateau at approximately 20 procedures per year, while the risk of revision surgery stabilizes at around 10 procedures annually, suggesting that higher surgical volume is associated with better patient outcomes. These findings highlight the importance of maintaining surgical proficiency and have implications for training and health system planning.
