We found that patient rather than operation factors were the best predictors and used these to create the COVIDsurg Mortality Score (https://covidsurgrisk.app). Our data demonstrates that it is safe to restart a wide range of surgical services for selected patients.engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Machine learning risk prediction of mortality for patients undergoing surgery with perioperative SARS-CoV-2: the COVIDSurg mortality scorejournal article1365-2168https://dx.doi.org/ 10.1093/bjs/znab18334227657https://academic.oup.com/bjs/article/108/11/1274/6316029?login=true#google_vignettehttps://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34227657/open access616.98:578.834Ciencias BiomédicasEnfermedades infecciosas32 Ciencias Médicas3205.05 Enfermedades Infecciosas
