Minimally Invasive Lower Anterior Resections - Better than Open But Not All the Same.

The American surgeon
Optimal approach for lower anterior resection has been closely debated. The relatively new addition of the robotic approach adds a layer of complexity to this topic. The majority of the literature has compared the possible approaches between two tec...

Comparison of Robotic and Laparoscopic Colectomies Using the 2019 ACS NSQIP Database.

Southern medical journal
OBJECTIVES: Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgeries (RLSs) have become increasingly common in the past decade alongside conventional laparoscopic surgeries (CLSs). In general, RLSs have been reported to be superior to CLSs; therefore, we compared both ...

Artificial intelligence and the potential for perioperative delabeling of penicillin allergies for neurosurgery inpatients.

British journal of neurosurgery
PURPOSE OF THE ARTICLE: Patients with penicillin allergy labels are more likely to have postoperative wound infections. When penicillin allergy labels are interrogated, a significant number of individuals do not have penicillin allergies and may be d...

Using artificial intelligence to reduce orthopedic surgical site infection surveillance workload: Algorithm design, validation, and implementation in 4 Spanish hospitals.

American journal of infection control
BACKGROUND: Surgical site infection (SSI) surveillance is a labor-intensive endeavor. We present the design and validation of an algorithm for SSI detection after hip replacement surgery, and a report of its successful implementation in 4 public hosp...

Machine Learning Model for Assessment of Risk Factors and Postoperative Day for Superficial vs Deep/Organ-Space Surgical Site Infections.

Surgical innovation
Deep and organ space surgical site infections (SSI) require more intensive treatment, may result in more severe clinical disease and may have different risk factors when compared to superficial SSIs. Machine learning (ML) algorithms provide the oppo...

Robotic Versus Laparoscopic Ventral Hernia Repair: Two-Year Results From a Prospective, Multicenter, Blinded Randomized Clinical Trial.

Annals of surgery
OBJECTIVE: Report the 2-year outcomes of a multicenter randomized controlled trial comparing robotic versus laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh ventral hernia repair.

Construct validation of machine learning for accurately predicting the risk of postoperative surgical site infection following spine surgery.

The Journal of hospital infection
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to evaluate the risk factors for machine learning (ML) algorithms in predicting postoperative surgical site infection (SSI) following spine surgery.

Machine learning application for prediction of surgical site infection after posterior cervical surgery.

International wound journal
Surgical site infection (SSI) is one of the most common complications of posterior cervical surgery. It is difficult to diagnose in the early stage and may lead to severe consequences such as wound dehiscence and central nervous system infection. Thi...

Lower bleeding volume contributes to decreasing surgical site infection in radical cystectomy: A propensity score-matched comparison of open versus robot-assisted radical cystectomy.

International journal of urology : official journal of the Japanese Urological Association
OBJECTIVES: To compare the incidence of surgical site infections (SSI) between robot-assisted and open radical cystectomies and investigate the risk factors for SSI after radical cystectomies.
