Abstract:
Web-based personalized predictive tools in orthopedic surgery are becoming more widely available. Despite rising numbers of these tools, many orthopedic surgeons may not know what tools are available, how these tools were developed, and how they can be utilized. The aim of this scoping review is to compile and synthesize the profile of existing web-based orthopedic tools. We conducted two separate PubMed searches-one a broad search and the second a more targeted one involving high impact journals-with the aim of comprehensively identifying all existing tools. These articles were then screened for functional tool URLs, methods regarding the tool\'s creation, and general inputs and outputs required for the tool to function. We identified 57 articles, which yielded 31 unique web-based tools. These tools involved various orthopedic conditions (e.g., fractures, osteoarthritis, musculoskeletal neoplasias); interventions (e.g., fracture fixation, total joint arthroplasty); outcomes (e.g., mortality, clinical outcomes). This scoping review highlights the availability and utility of a vast array of web-based personalized predictive tools for orthopedic surgeons. Increased awareness and access to these tools may allow for better decision support, surgical planning, post-operative expectation management, and improved shared decision-making.
摘要:
骨科手术中基于网络的个性化预测工具正变得越来越广泛。尽管这些工具的数量不断增加,许多骨科医生可能不知道有什么工具可用,这些工具是如何开发的,以及如何利用它们。此范围审查的目的是汇编和综合现有的基于网络的骨科工具的概况。我们进行了两次单独的PubMed搜索-一次是广泛的搜索,第二次是更具针对性的搜索,涉及高影响力的期刊-目的是全面识别所有现有工具。然后筛选这些文章的功能工具URL,关于工具创建的方法,以及工具运行所需的一般输入和输出。我们确定了57篇文章,产生了31个独特的基于Web的工具。这些工具涉及各种骨科条件(例如,骨折,骨关节炎,肌肉骨骼肿瘤);干预措施(例如,骨折固定术,全关节成形术);结果(例如,死亡率,临床结果)。此范围审查重点介绍了用于整形外科医生的大量基于网络的个性化预测工具的可用性和实用性。提高对这些工具的认识和访问可能会提供更好的决策支持,手术计划,术后期望管理,改善共同决策。
