Article Synopsis
  • Machine learning (ML) is increasingly important for predicting sepsis, a critical condition where timely intervention is crucial; this study explores the effectiveness of ML models in clinical settings.
  • Researchers analyzed 73 studies involving nearly 458,000 patients and found that ML models, particularly Neural Networks and Decision Trees, performed better than traditional scoring systems, achieving a pooled AUC of 0.825.
  • The study emphasizes the need for standardized practices in reporting and validating ML models to enhance their clinical application and effectiveness in predicting sepsis across diverse patient populations.

Background: Postoperative delirium (POD) significantly affects patient outcomes after surgery, leading to increased morbidity, extended hospital stays, and potential long-term cognitive decline. This study assessed the predictive value of intraoperative electroencephalography (EEG) patterns for POD in adults.

Methods: This systematic review and meta-analysis followed the PRISMA and Cochrane Handbook guidelines.

Objectives: The quality of postoperative analgesia in total knee arthroplasty is crucial for patient recovery, rehabilitation, and hospital stay duration. In line with the above, а single-shot adductor canal block has been considered as an improved method over continuous femoral nerve block. However, continuous adductor canal block and single-shot femoral nerve block have been not adequately addressed in the discussion.
