Calculators & Databases
Welcome
The Bowers Neurosurgical Frailty and Outcomes Lab is dedicated to improving patient care by using the latest technology and techniques. One of our key strategies for achieving this goal is the development of online calculators that provide real-time, bedside assessments of frailty. These tools are invaluable in helping us provide individualized care plans that optimize patient outcomes. Aaron Segura has played a critical role in the development of these calculators, and we’re proud to have him on our team. Our databases are maintained by Omar M. M. Mansoor.
Our web app calculates the publication value unit (PVU) and the Arms Race Control Score (ARCS). This innovative tool aims to provide a more standardized and holistic assessment of residency applications.
This app predicts 30-day mortality after surgical resection of brain metastases, which allows healthcare professionals to make proactive decisions and provide the best possible care for their patients.
Our online calculator allows for prediction of non-home discharge and mortality (or discharge to hospice) after epilepsy surgery
Bowers and Kogan Arms Race Control Score Database is a first of its kind, bibliometric database containing quantified academic productivity scores of >800 neurosurgery faculty in the U.S.
Our frailty-driven model allows for the prediction of non-home discharge after spine deformity surgery
