Early revision for total hip arthroplasty is a serious adverse outcome. There are multiple contributing risk factors for early revision. Risk factors can exist at the level of the surgeon and the level of the institution. The primary research question of this study was to determine the relative contribution of surgeon-level and hospital-level variance to rates of early revision (overall and for infection) after primary total hip arthroplasty.
