Development of an American College of Surgeons National Surgery Quality Improvement Program: Morbidity and Mortality Risk Calculator for Colorectal Surgery
Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 06/01/09
Cohen ME et al. - The ACS NSQIP colorectal risk calculator allows surgeons to preoperatively provide patients with detailed information about their personal risks of overall morbidity, serious morbidity, and mortality. Because ACS NSQIP can also categorize hospitals as performing better or worse than expected, surgeons have the opportunity to adjust risk probabilities for patients at their institutions accordingly.
