Abstract

BACKGROUND: Unplanned reoperation postspinal surgery (URPS) leads to prolonged hospital stays, higher costs, decreased patient satisfaction, and adversely affects postoperative rehabilitation. This study aimed to develop and validate prediction models (nomograms) for early URPS risk factors using machine learning methods, aiding spine surgeons in designing prevention strategies, promoting early recovery, reducing complications, and improving patient satisfaction.
