Fig. 1 Hospital-level probability of morphine PCA administration among all patients who received morphine either via PCA or IV during 2007–2011 among 42 children's hospitals. The figure displays the adjusted hospital-level probability of morphine PCA exposure from 2007 to 2011 across ascending hospital volume for all 42 PHIS hospitals. Hospital volume is the total number of patients at that hospital who were exposed to morphine during the study period. PCA = patient-controlled analgesia; PHIS = Pediatric Health Information System.
