The designation of major service during hospitalization was correct 95% of the time and captured 87% of mortality events. Differences between external and internal attribution methods were statistically significant (P < .001). DRG-based models are frequently utilized but can be inaccurate when attributing mortality for an individual otolaryngology department. Otolaryngology mortalities appear to be captured and assigned more accurately by assigning deaths to the service that renders the majority of care during hospitalization. 4 Laryngoscope, 131E1805-E1810, 2021. 4 Laryngoscope, 131E1805-E1810, 2021. Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) is characterized by an elevated thyroid-stimulating hormone and normal free thyroxine. This study aimed to evaluate the influence of SCH on the recovery of patients after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). From January 2015 to December 2018, 548 SCH patients and 6718 euthyroid patients who underwent CABG were identified. Propensity score matching was used to create two cohorts with similar baseline characteristics (n = 545 in each group). The early postoperative outcomes were compared. After CABG, there was no difference in the incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation between the two groups (20.4% in the SCH group and 20.6% in the euthyroidism group; odds ratio 0.99; 95% confidence interval 0.74-1.33; p = 0.94). Subgroup analyses did not indicate an effect in any category of patients. The proportions of the use of dopamine and noradrenaline in the SCH group were higher than those in the euthyroid patients (76.7% vs. 68.6%, p = 0.003; 56.5% vs. 49.0%, p = 0.01, respectively). The total duration of inotropic support in the SCH group was longer than that in the euthyroid patients (median duration 4vs. 3 days, p = 0.002). The incidence of impaired wound healing
