Artificial intelligence is shifting surgery from retrospective audits to real-time guidance and forward-looking risk control. This session shows how to turn raw data—images, waveforms, EHR entries, and operative video—into tools that help surgeons and teams choose better plans, anticipate complications, and streamline care. We map the full lifecycle: data capture that respects privacy; model development and validation; human-centered interfaces; and governance that prevents bias and drift. If you’re seeking AI, Data Science & Predictive Surgery, comparing programs at an Surgical Science Conference, or evaluating surgical video analytics, this page clarifies where AI already helps (risk scoring, workflow triage, instrument tracking) and where claims outpace evidence.
We will explore computer vision that recognizes steps and flags errors; NLP that extracts structured insights from notes; and predictive models that guide transfusion thresholds, PONV bundles, and escalation criteria. Practical sections cover dataset curation, annotation quality, transportability across sites, and continuous monitoring to detect model decay. We emphasize decision support—not decision replacement—through interfaces that explain “why,” highlight uncertainty, and never interrupt critical flow. You’ll learn how to integrate AI with navigation, robotics, and smart OR systems; how to build feedback loops that convert outcomes into better next-case recommendations; and how to set guardrails through ethics boards, consent language, and audit trails. To ensure value, we connect the tech to hard endpoints—fewer complications, shorter length of stay, reduced cost—and to soft endpoints like team workload and patient experience. Equitable access is a priority, with pathways for smaller centers to adopt proven tools without massive infrastructure. By the end, attendees will have a practical framework for selecting vendors, writing requirements, piloting safely, and scaling responsibly across service lines.

From Data to Decisions
Signal Capture & Curation
- Standardize video, imaging, and physiologic feeds with consent and security baked in.
- Label datasets with inter-rater checks to keep annotations reliable and reusable.
Modeling & Validation
- Choose architectures fit for task—vision, NLP, or multimodal fusion.
- Validate for transportability across patient populations and institutions.
Workflow Integration
- Deliver guidance at the moment of need, not after the fact.
- Expose rationales and confidence so humans remain in control.
Governance & Equity
- Monitor for bias and drift; maintain audit trails and clear handoffs of responsibility.
- Adopt procurement and support models that let smaller centers participate.
