BACKGROUND: Adequate preoperative identification of patients at risk of significant healthcare utilization after surgery could help guide preoperative decision-making as well as postoperative patient management. While several studies have proposed me...
BACKGROUND: Postoperative complications in colorectal surgery can significantly impact patient outcomes and healthcare costs. Accurate prediction of these complications enables targeted perioperative management, improving patient safety and optimizin...
PURPOSE: The choice of wound closure modality after limb-sparing extremity soft-tissue sarcoma (eSTS) resection is fraught with uncertainty. Leveraging machine learning and clinicoradiomic data, we developed Sarcoma Reconstruction Nomograms (SARCON),...
INTRODUCTION: In older patients, postoperative delirium (POD) is a major complication that can result in greater morbidity, longer hospital stays, and higher healthcare expenses. Accurate prediction models for POD can enhance patient outcomes by guid...
BACKGROUND: The Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program determines Medicare readmission penalties through risk-adjusted excess readmissions ratios. This study uses interpretable machine learning to identify associations with coronary artery bypass gr...
OBJECTIVE: Major lower extremity amputation for advanced vascular disease involves significant perioperative risks. Although outcome prediction tools could aid in clinical decision-making, they remain limited. To address this, we developed machine le...
