A quarter of hospital trusts in England are at raised risk of providing poor care, a review by the regulator shows.
The findings are based on monitoring by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) of a host of data, including death rates, serious errors and patient surveys.
It found 44 out of 161 trusts fell into the two highest risk categories.
The exercise has been carried out as part of the regulator's new hospital inspection regime, which will see inspectors go into every trust by 2015.
