{"Image DocumentName": "Association Between Hospital Process Performance and Outcomes Among Patients With Acute Coronary Syndromes", "Image ImageDescription": "igure 2. Association Between Hospital Composite Guideline Adherence Rate and In-Hospital MortalityNSTE ACS indicates non\u2013ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome; NSTEMI, non\u2013ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. Three hundred fifty hospitals are grouped by composite guideline adherence into quartiles. The left plot shows risk-adjusted mortality rates for overall patients with NSTE ACS for that quartile, and the right plot shows risk-adjusted mortality rates for the NSTEMI subgroup. Standard error bars are also included for each group. All results were adjusted for age, sex, race, body mass index, patient insurance status, admission electrocardiograph (ST depression, transient ST elevation), admission cardiac marker status, presenting signs of heart failure, initial heart rate and systolic blood pressure, history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia, renal insufficiency, prior myocardial infarction, prior percutaneous coronary intervention, prior coronary artery bypass graft surgery, prior congestive heart failure, prior stroke, current/recent smoker, and family history of coronary disease.
