The adjusted risk of each of the above complications remained significantly increased for surgeries lasting longer than 120 min. Conclusions As surgical duration increases, there is a significant increase in the rate of complications after TURP. These data demonstrate that this procedure is safest ...
In an era of proliferating systems of quality assessment, surgeon confidence in metric tools is essential for successful initiatives in quality improvement. We evaluated surgeons' awareness and attitudes about ACS-NSQIP, which is the only national, surgeon-developed, risk-adjusted, system of surgical ...
Breast surgeons should advocate for benchmarking by surgical site-specific metrics, because current NSQIP criteria may negatively affect the quality assessment of high-volume breast centers.doi:10.1245/s10434-012-2529-6Dustin L. Eck MDStephanie L. Koonce MD…...
Although the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Classification ability to predict risk has been evaluated for in-patient surgeries, an evaluation in outpatient surgeries has yet to be performed. The major goal of the current study is to determine if the ASA classification is an ...
