Early Postoperative Prediction of Complications and Readmission After Colorectal Cancer Surgery Using an Artificial Neural Network.

Diseases of the colon and rectum
BACKGROUND: Early predictors of postoperative complications can risk-stratify patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery. However, conventional regression models have limited power to identify complex nonlinear relationships among a large set of v...

Deep learning predicts postoperative opioids refills in a multi-institutional cohort of surgical patients.

Surgery
BACKGROUND: To combat the opioid epidemic, several strategies were implemented to limit the unnecessary prescription of opioids in the postoperative period. However, this leaves a subset of patients who genuinely require additional opioids with inade...

Can artificial intelligence make elective hand clinic letters easier for patients to understand?

The Journal of hand surgery, European volume
We investigated whether ChatGPT was able to increase the Flesch reading ease and the Flesch-Kincaid reading level of elective clinic letters written by hand surgeons. ChatGPT could not reliably simplify the hand clinic letters any further.

Use of artificial intelligence in the detection of the critical view of safety during laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to detect the critical view of safety during elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

Assessing the Utility of a Machine-Learning Model to Assist With the Assignment of the American Society of Anesthesiology Physical Status Classification in Pediatric Patients.

Anesthesia and analgesia
BACKGROUND: The American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status Classification System (ASA-PS) is used to classify patients' health before delivering an anesthetic. Assigning an ASA-PS Classification score to pediatric patients can be challengi...

Machine learning and decision making in aortic arch repair.

The Journal of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery
BACKGROUND: Decision making during aortic arch surgery regarding cannulation strategy and nadir temperature are important in reducing risk, and there is a need to determine the best individualized strategy in a data-driven fashion. Using machine lear...

Do we need a co-pilot in the operating theatre? A cross-sectional study on surgeons' perceptions.

Scottish medical journal
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this original study was to investigate general surgeons' perceptions on the role of dual surgeon operating for high-risk, elective complex surgical procedures.

Patterns of Marijuana Use and Nicotine Exposure in Patients Seeking Elective Aesthetic Procedures.

Plastic and reconstructive surgery
BACKGROUND: With the increasing legalization and popularity of marijuana, it is frequently and sometimes unintentionally combined with nicotine-containing products. As a consequence, patients may fail to accurately report usage during preoperative ex...

Tool-tissue force segmentation and pattern recognition for evaluating neurosurgical performance.

Scientific reports
Surgical data quantification and comprehension expose subtle patterns in tasks and performance. Enabling surgical devices with artificial intelligence provides surgeons with personalized and objective performance evaluation: a virtual surgical assist...

The new SUMPOT to predict postoperative complications using an Artificial Neural Network.

Scientific reports
An accurate assessment of preoperative risk may improve use of hospital resources and reduce morbidity and mortality in high-risk surgical patients. This study aims at implementing an automated surgical risk calculator based on Artificial Neural Netw...
