The impact of surgical duration on plastic surgery outcomes

The impact of surgical duration on plastic surgery outcomes Drawing from data on over 15,000 plastic surgery procedures, we determined that increased operative time was associated with a higher risk of medical, surgical, and overall complications. As outcome measures take a more prominent role in the care of plastic surgery patients, these findings will advance patient education and practice management. Level of Evidence: Level III, pronostic/risk study http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png European Journal of Plastic Surgery Springer Journals
