Abstract

PURPOSE OF THE ARTICLE: Patients with penicillin allergy labels are more likely to have postoperative wound infections. When penicillin allergy labels are interrogated, a significant number of individuals do not have penicillin allergies and may be delabeled. This study was conducted to gain preliminary evidence into the potential role of artificial intelligence in assisting with perioperative penicillin adverse reaction (AR) evaluation.
