Capturing Surgical Data: Comparing a Quality Improvement Registry to Natural Language Processing and Manual Chart Review.

Introduction: Collecting accurate operative details remains a limitation of surgical research. Surgeon-entered data in clinical registries offers one solution, but natural language processing (NLP) has emerged as a modality for automating manual chart review (MCR). This study aims to compare the accuracy and efficiency of NLP and MCR with a surgeon-entered, prospective registry data in determining the rate of gross bile spillage (GBS) during cholecystectomy.
