This is interesting - the drop in SSI at site 5 is pretty big.

No, what's interesting is how far out of whack their pre-checklist op site infection rate was. If that data is real, they should have been investigated, not included in a study. I'd be interested to see what the stats look like after exclusion of that one major outlier.
