New Predictors of Emergency Surgery Across all Age Groups in Japan:

Key Points

• The study aims to identify new predictors of emergency surgery across all age groups in Japan.
• Analyzed previous studies on the relationship between temperature and emergency surgeries.
• Explored additional climate factors as predictors for various age groups.
• Employed statistical methods to evaluate these predictors.
• Identified new climate-based predictors of emergency surgery applicable to all age groups.
• Demonstrated that temperature alone is not sufficient to predict emergency operations.
• Highlighted the importance of effective resource allocation based on these predictors.
