OBJECTIVE: This study aims to develop high-performing Machine Learning and Deep Learning models in predicting hospital length of stay (LOS) while enhancing interpretability. We compare performance and interpretability of models trained only on struct...
OBJECTIVE: With the increased adoption of robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy, the effects of unplanned conversions to an 'open' operation are ill-defined. This study aims to describe the impact of unplanned conversions of robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy...
PURPOSE: Accurate prediction of the Length of Stay (LoS) and mortality in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is crucial for effective hospital management, and it can assist clinicians for real-time demand capacity (RTDC) administration, thereby improving ...
BACKGROUND: Frontoorbital distraction osteogenesis (FODO) is an established surgical technique for patients with unicoronal craniosynostosis. The authors' institution has used an endoscope-assisted technique (endo-FODO) in recent years to decrease cu...
Diverticulitis is a prevalent gastrointestinal disease that often warrants surgical intervention. However, the optimal approach between traditional laparoscopy (LC) and robotic-assisted laparoscopy (RAC) for diverticulitis remains unclear. Our resear...
To compare the effectiveness of the Da Vinci Surgical Robot System (DSRS) "3 + 1" and "4 + 1" models for colorectal cancer (CRC). A total of 107 patients with CRC admitted to our hospital from February 2021 to May 2022 were selected for the retrospec...

BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Navigation and robotic technologies have emerged as an alternative option to conventional freehand techniques for pedicle screw insertion. However, the effectiveness of these technologies in reducing the perioperative complication...
Using data from cardiovascular surgery patients with long and highly variable post-surgical lengths of stay (LOS), we develop a modeling framework to reduce recovery unit congestion. We estimate the LOS and its probability distribution using machine ...

OBJECTIVES: The aims of the present study were to describe the perioperative findings of the first series of patients undergoing robot-assisted radical nephrectomy (RARN) with a newly launched platform, the hinotori surgical robot system, and compare...
PURPOSE: In-hospital health-related adverse events (HAEs) are a major concern for hospitals worldwide. In high-income countries, approximately 1 in 10 patients experience HAEs associated with their hospital stay. Estimating the risk of an HAE at the ...
