Figure 1 Plots depicting the incidence of chylothorax and total volume for each hospital, stratified by type of procedure. Each individual bar represents a different center, with different colors indicating different quartiles according to median hospital annual volume. The line represents the total cumulative volume (VOL) for each hospital for that particular type of procedure. RACHS, Risk Adjustment for Congenital Heart Surgery-1.
