Abstract

BACKGROUND: Operating room efficiency is of paramount importance for scheduling, cost efficiency, and to allow for the high operating volume required to address the growing demand for arthroplasty. The purpose of this study was to develop a machine learning predictive model for total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) procedure duration and to identify factors which are predictive of a prolonged procedure.
