Video Summary

Dr. Owiyocho Adogwa presented an abstract titled "Interdisciplinary Care Model Decreases Use of Critical Care Services After Corrective Surgery for Adult Degenerative Scoliosis." The model aims to optimize patient care through a multidisciplinary approach, including the involvement of various healthcare providers. The video highlights the rising healthcare costs, particularly in critical care services, and the need for effective strategies to improve patient outcomes and decrease complications. The proposed geriatric neurosurgical care model integrates different services, such as pain management and social work, in the preoperative setting to identify high-risk patients and optimize their condition. Preliminary data from the study suggests that this model can significantly reduce the length of hospital stay and healthcare resource utilization.
