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

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...
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...
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...
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...
BACKGROUND: The Robotic NICE procedure is a total intracorporeal natural orifice approach in which specimen extraction and anastomosis is accomplished without an abdominal wall incision other than the port sites themselves. We aim to present the succ...
