| Factor | Incidence of AE in different operator volume (cases/year) |
| Description | While operators with a yearly case volume of 200–249 cases appeared to have slightly higher odds of a high severity AE than operators with>250 cases per year (OR 1.34, 95% CI 1.05–1.71, P=0.02), |
| Biomarker | NA |
| Classification | A3 (clinical factor - disease & symptom) |

| Application | risk assessment |
| Objective | evaluate the effect of operator experience and case volume on the incidence of adverse events in congenital cardiac catheterization. In particular, the study thought to identify whether operators with less than 5 years in practice have a higher incidence of risk-adjusted adverse events. |

| Conclusion | While operators with a yearly case volume of 200–249 cases appeared to have slightly higher odds of a high severity AE than operators with>250 cases per year (OR 1.34, 95% CI 1.05–1.71, P=0.02), |
