BACKGROUND: Periprosthetic joint infection is the most common cause of readmissions after total joint arthroplasty (TJA). Intrawound vancomycin powder (VP) has reduced infection rates in spine surgery; however, there are no data regarding VP in prima...
BACKGROUND: Hysterectomy is one of the most common procedures performed in the United States. New techniques utilizing laparoscopic and robotic technology are becoming increasingly common. It is unknown if these minimally invasive surgical techniques...
BACKGROUND: A precondition for the success of the prevention of SSI is the complete realisation of the proven anti-infective measures in form of the multi-barrier strategy or the so-called bundles. In daily practice it is important to follow the fixe...
BACKGROUND: Many machine learning (ML) algorithms have been used to develop surgical site infection (SSI) prediction models, but little is known about their predicting performance. We conducted a network meta-analysis to compare the performance of di...
This retrospective study leverages machine learning to determine the optimal timing for fracture reconstruction surgery in polytrauma patients, focusing on those with concomitant traumatic brain injury. The analysis included 218 patients admitted to ...

OBJECTIVE: To externally validate by revision and update the study on the efficacy of nosocomial infection control (SENIC) model of surgical site infection (SSI) using logistic regression (LR) and machine learning (ML) approaches.
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 ...
