Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Machine learning (ML) models may offer a novel solution to reducing postoperative complication rates and improving post-surgical outcomes after total joint arthroplasty (TJA). However, the variety of different ML models that exist paired with the increasing number of potential inputs can make the implementation of this tool challenging. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review to assess the most optimal inputs of different ML models in predicting postoperative (1) medical outcomes, (2) orthopedic outcomes, and (3) patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) after total joint arthroplasty.
