Summary

This study tests a computer system that uses routine hospital data to predict risks of complications after surgery. Researchers will compare the computer's risk scores to those made by surgeons and anesthesiologists for the same patients. About 200 healthcare providers will participate over two 6-month periods. The goal is to see if the computer can help doctors make more accurate risk assessments.
