OBJECTIVES: Despite increasing use of robotic technology for minimally invasive hysterectomy with sacrocolpopexy, evidence supporting the benefits of these costly procedures remains inconclusive. This study aimed to compare differences in perioperati...
Short-term reattendances to emergency departments are a key quality of care indicator. Identifying patients at increased risk of early reattendance could help reduce the number of missed critical illnesses and could reduce avoidable utilization of em...

BACKGROUND: Early unplanned hospital readmissions are associated with increased harm to patients, increased medical costs, and negative hospital reputation. With the identification of at-risk patients, a crucial step toward improving care, appropriat...
BACKGROUND: Prior literature suggests that psychosocial factors adversely impact health and health care utilization outcomes. However, psychosocial factors are typically not captured by the structured data in electronic medical records (EMRs) but are...
