1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Abstract

This systematic review examines the recent use of artificial intelligence, particularly machine learning, in the management of operating rooms. A total of 22 selected studies from February 2019 to September 2023 are analyzed. The review emphasizes the significant impact of AI on predicting surgical case durations, optimizing post-anesthesia care unit resource allocation, and detecting surgical case cancellations. Machine learning algorithms such as XGBoost, random forest, and neural networks have demonstrated their effectiveness in improving prediction accuracy and resource utilization. However, challenges such as data access and privacy concerns are acknowledged. The review highlights the evolving nature of artificial intelligence in perioperative medicine research and the need for continued innovation to harness artificial intelligence's transformative potential for healthcare administrators, practitioners, and patients. Ultimately, artificial intelligence integration in operative room management promises to enhance healthcare efficiency and patient outcomes.
