Development of a preoperative predictive model for major complications following adult spinal deformity surgery.

CONCLUSIONS A successful model (87% accuracy, 0.89 AUROC curve) was built predicting major intraoperative or perioperative complications following ASD surgery. This model can provide the foundation toward improved education and point-of-care decision making for patients undergoing ASD surgery. PMID: 28338449 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
