Abstract:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) defines the social determinants of health (SDOH) as "the conditions in the environments where people are born, live, learn, work, play, worship, and age that affect a range of health, functioning, and quality-of-life outcomes and risks," which includes economic stability, access to quality health care, and physical environment. There is increasing evidence that SDOH have an impact in shaping a patient's access and recovery from surgery. This review evaluates the role surgeons play in reducing these disparities.
