Great work from our physicians and researchers at @KPDOR @kpnorcal @PermanenteDocs!
We used a machine learning algorithm to streamline and standardize the triage of patients to different types of appointments prior to elective surgery. Excited to see that our @KPDORDSF @KPDOR study was published this March in @AnnalsofSurgery journals.lww.com/annalsofsur…

COVID vaccination benefits surgical patients. In @AnnalsofSurgery: “Surgery shortly following Covid-19 infection was not associated with higher risks among fully vaccinated patients or among patients who underwent surgery without general anesthesia.” ow.ly/V92u50K2tHF
