Abstract

BACKGROUND: Accurate projections of procedural case durations are complex but critical to the planning of perioperative staffing, operating room resources, and patient communication. Nonlinear prediction models using machine learning methods may provide opportunities for hospitals to improve upon current estimates of procedure duration.
