Why the study?
Surgical treatment is invasive and complications vary based on patient physical reserve, nutritional status, and underlying disease, warranting a predictor for the limits of surgical invasiveness.
Can a surgical risk score (SRS) predict the limits of surgical invasiveness in patients undergoing gastrointestinal procedures?

Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
A novel surgical risk score was developed to predict the limits of surgical invasiveness for gastrointestinal procedures based on preoperative patient characteristics.
Objective: Surgical treatment is invasive, and complications may be more likely in individual patients based on their physical reserve, nutritional status, and underlying disease. We developed a surgical risk score (SRS) to calculate the limits of surgical invasiveness during gastrointestinal procedures and created a versatile preoperative predictor of these limits based on patient characteristics.
