Risk-adjusted analysis of surgeon performance: a 1-year study Sir With reference to the letter from Mr Copeland (Br J Surg 1996; 83: 136) in which he says that 'surgeon A is performing well within his confidence limits and therefore his death rate does not differ from that expected', I feel I should point out that the calculated ratio will always lie within the corresponding confidence interval. The important point to consider is whether the value of 1, which corresponds to no difference between observed and expected deaths, lies within the interval.
