Area of Science:

Orthopedic Surgery
Medical Imaging
Artificial Intelligence

Background:

Wrong-site surgery remains a critical patient safety concern in orthopedic procedures.
Accurate identification of left and right upper limbs is essential for preventing surgical errors.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and evaluate an Artificial Intelligence Image Recognition System (AIIRS) for differentiating left and right upper limbs.
To assess the efficacy of AIIRS in preventing wrong-site upper limb surgery.

Main Methods:

Implementation of a deep learning model for image recognition.
Training and testing the AIIRS on a dataset of upper limb images.
Experimental validation of the system's precision and recall rates.

Main Results:

The AIIRS achieved a precision rate of 98% and a recall rate of 93% in differentiating upper limbs.
Experimental results demonstrated the system's capability to assist in preventing wrong-site surgery.

Conclusions:

The developed AIIRS shows significant potential in enhancing patient safety in orthopedic surgery.
Further human trials are planned to validate the system's clinical utility.
This technology offers substantial benefits and research value for upper limb orthopedic procedures.
