BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) is a field involving computational simulation of human intelligence processes; these applications of deep learning could have implications in the specialty of emergency surgery (ES). ES is a rapidly advancing ...
BACKGROUND: Surgical patients incur preventable harm from cognitive and judgment errors made under time constraints and uncertainty regarding patients' diagnoses and predicted response to treatment. Decision analysis and techniques of reinforcement l...
IMPORTANCE: When evaluating surgeons in the operating room, experienced physicians must rely on live or recorded video to assess the surgeon's technical performance, an approach prone to subjectivity and error. Owing to the large number of surgical p...
BACKGROUND: Delayed recognition of decompensation and failure-to-rescue on surgical wards are major sources of preventable harm. This review assimilates and critically evaluates available evidence and identifies opportunities to improve surgical ward...
BACKGROUND: Intraoperative hypotension is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Current treatment is mostly reactive. The Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) algorithm is able to predict hypotension minutes before the blood pressure actua...
BACKGROUND: Postoperative mortality occurs in 1-2% of patients undergoing major inpatient surgery. The currently available prediction tools using summaries of intraoperative data are limited by their inability to reflect shifting risk associated with...
