Machine learning based prediction of perioperative blood loss in orthognathic surgery.

Journal of cranio-maxillo-facial surgery : official publication of the European Association for Cranio-Maxillo-Facial Surgery
The aim of this study was to evaluate, if and with what accuracy perioperative blood loss can be calculated by a machine learning algorithm prior to orthognathic surgery. The investigators implemented a random forest algorithm to predict perioperativ...

A machine learning approach for predictive models of adverse events following spine surgery.

The spine journal : official journal of the North American Spine Society
BACKGROUND: Rates of adverse events following spine surgery vary widely by patient-, diagnosis-, and procedure-related factors. It is critical to understand the expected rates of complications and to be able to implement targeted efforts at limiting ...

Development of machine learning algorithms for prediction of prolonged opioid prescription after surgery for lumbar disc herniation.

The spine journal : official journal of the North American Spine Society
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Spine surgery has been identified as a risk factor for prolonged postoperative opioid use. Preoperative prediction of opioid use could improve risk stratification, shared decision-making, and patient counseling before surgery.

Predicting Inpatient Payments Prior to Lower Extremity Arthroplasty Using Deep Learning: Which Model Architecture Is Best?

The Journal of arthroplasty
BACKGROUND: Recent advances in machine learning have given rise to deep learning, which uses hierarchical layers to build models, offering the ability to advance value-based healthcare by better predicting patient outcomes and costs of a given treatm...

Automatic segmentation of bone surfaces from ultrasound using a filter-layer-guided CNN.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Ultrasound (US) provides real-time, two-/three-dimensional safe imaging. Due to these capabilities, it is considered a safe alternative to intra-operative fluoroscopy in various computer-assisted orthopedic surgery (CAOS) procedures. However...

Effect of Initial Graft Tension During Calcaneofibular Ligament Reconstruction on Ankle Kinematics and Laxity.

The American journal of sports medicine
BACKGROUND: Although a variety of surgical procedures for lateral ankle ligament reconstruction have frequently been reported, little is known about the effects of initial graft tension. Purpose/Hypothesis: The purpose was to investigate the effects ...

Robotics in Orthopedics: A Brave New World.

The Journal of arthroplasty
Future health-care projection projects a significant growth in population by 2020. Health care has seen an exponential growth in technology to address the growing population with the decreasing number of physicians and health-care workers. Robotics i...

Redefining Value in Orthopedic Surgery.

The Orthopedic clinics of North America
Value-based health care is a commonly used term that merits a strong understanding from the orthopedic surgeon given its importance in orthopedic patient care. In this review article, we provide an overview of the concept, discussing the value equati...

The Challenges of Using ChatGPT for Clinical Decision Support in Orthopaedic Surgery: A Pilot Study.

The Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have recently exploded in both accessibility and applicability, including in health care. Although studies have demonstrated its ability to adequately answer simple patient issues or multiple-choi...

The Future of Artificial Intelligence in Hand and Upper Extremity Surgery.

Journal of surgical orthopaedic advances
The increasing role of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare is largely attributed to the fact that, with continual medical advances and digitization, clinical decision-making has become more and more reliant on data. As the volume and complexit...
