IMPORTANCE: Surgical infections are a major cause of perioperative morbidity and mortality, particularly in low-resource settings. Clean Cut, a 6-month quality improvement program developed by the global nonprofit organization Lifebox, has demonstrated improvements in postoperative infectious complications. However, the pilot program required intense external programmatic and resource support. OBJECTIVE: To examine the improvement in adherence to infection prevention and control standards and rates of postoperative infections in hospitals in the Clean Cut program after implementation strategies were updated and program execution was refined...

IMPORTANCE: Prior research has shown differences in postoperative outcomes for patients treated by female and male surgeons. It is important to understand, from a health system and payer perspective, whether surgical health care costs differ according to the surgeon's sex. OBJECTIVE: To examine the association between surgeon sex and health care costs among patients undergoing surgery. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: This population-based, retrospective cohort study included adult patients undergoing 1 of 25 common elective or emergent surgical procedures between January 1, 2007, and December 31, 2019, in Ontario, Canada...

IMPORTANCE: There is a lack of consensus regarding the interval of time-dependent postoperative mortality risk following acute coronary syndrome or stroke. OBJECTIVE: To determine the magnitude and duration of risk associated with the time interval between a preoperative cardiovascular event and 30-day postoperative mortality. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: This is a longitudinal retrospective population-based cohort study. This study linked data from the Hospital Episode Statistics for National Health Service England, Myocardial Ischaemia National Audit Project and the Office for National Statistics mortality registry...

IMPORTANCE: Patient safety interventions, like the World Health Organization Surgical Safety Checklist, require effective implementation strategies to achieve meaningful results. Institutions with underperforming checklists require evidence-based guidance for reimplementing these practices to maximize their impact on patient safety. OBJECTIVE: To assess the ability of a comprehensive system of safety checklist reimplementation to change behavior, enhance safety culture, and improve outcomes for surgical patients...

IMPORTANCE: Acute cholecystitis (AC) management during pregnancy requires balancing the risk of pregnancy loss or preterm delivery (adverse pregnancy outcomes [APOs]) with or without surgery. Guidelines recommend cholecystectomy across trimesters; however, trimester-specific evidence on the risks of AC and its management is lacking. OBJECTIVE: To assess cholecystectomy frequency in pregnant people with AC, compare the rates of APOs in pregnant people with or without AC, and compare the rates of APOs in people with AC who did or did not undergo cholecystectomy...

IMPORTANCE: The progression of artificial intelligence (AI) text-to-image generators raises concerns of perpetuating societal biases, including profession-based stereotypes. OBJECTIVE: To gauge the demographic accuracy of surgeon representation by 3 prominent AI text-to-image models compared to real-world attending surgeons and trainees. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: The study used a cross-sectional design, assessing the latest release of 3 leading publicly available AI text-to-image generators...

IMPORTANCE: Recurrence continues to be a significant challenge in the treatment and management of pilonidal disease. OBJECTIVE: To compare the effectiveness of laser epilation (LE) as an adjunct to standard care vs standard care alone in preventing recurrence of pilonidal disease in adolescents and young adults. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: This was a single-institution, randomized clinical trial with 1-year follow-up conducted from September 2017 to September 2022...
