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 l...
Endoscopic-assisted breast surgery (EABS) provides better cosmetic outcomes for breast cancer patients with small incisions in an inconspicuous area. However, an extended incision and heavy assistant retraction are usually required for an adequate e...
BACKGROUND: Accurate case length estimation is a vital part of optimizing operating room use; however, significant inaccuracies exist with current solutions. The purpose of this study was to develop and validate an artificial intelligence system for ...
BACKGROUND: Accurate operative scheduling is essential for the appropriation of operating room esources. We sought to implement a machine learning model to predict primary total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) case time.
