  1. SUSP webinar Mila H. Ju, MDJennifer L. Paruch, MD August 15, 2013

  2. What is the need for risk calculator? • Informed consent • Thorough understanding of potential complications with surgery • Shared decision making process • Type of operation • Or if surgery should be performed at all

  3. What is the need for risk calculator? • Information traditionally based on • Surgeon experience • Literature • Single institution studies • Clinical trials • And not specific to individual patient characteristics

  4. Development of the Risk Calculator • ACS NSQIP Data (2009-2012) • 30-day outcomes • Risk-adjusted using patient demographics, comorbidities and laboratory values • Collected by trained and audited surgical clinical reviewers (SCRs) • Standardized data definitions • Captures complications that occur after discharge or at another hospital • Superior to administrative data Lawson et al., Annals of Surgery, December 2012

  5. Development of the Risk Calculator • 1,414,006 patients (393 hospitals) • All surgical subspecialties (1,557 CPT codes) • 21 pre-operative factors  10 outcomes • Similar performance to previous, procedure-specific risk calculators for ACS NSQIP • Includes new Surgeon Adjustment Score (SAS)

  6. Demonstration riskcalculator.facs.org

  7. Surgeon Adjustment Score • Surgeons can adjust estimate using clinical judgment • Risk factors not captured by the Risk Calculator • ONE standard deviation above CPT mean • 3 TWO standard deviations above CPT mean

  14. Information from Risk Calculator will help reducing harm. From 2012 SUSP presentation by Goeschel, Hobson, Wick, & Lubomski: CUSP

  15. Useful tool • Informed consent / decision aid • Prevent / reduce complications • Easily accessible • No log-in, no fee • Just internet connection

  16. In the future • Application for iPad, iPhone, and other smartphones • PDF, email, or print functions
