Can Machine Learning Algorithms Predict Which Patients Will Achieve Minimally Clinically Important Differences From Total Joint Arthroplasty?
Clin Orthop Relat Res. 2019 Jun;477(6):1267-1279.

The three machine learning algorithms were tested using hospital registry data regarding total joint arthroplasty (TJA) patients.They were found to have the potential to improve clinical decision-making and patient care by helping to prioritize resources for postsurgical monitoring and informing presurgical discussions of likely outcomes of TJA.
