Complex Information for Anesthesiologists Presented Quickly and Clearly
We searched PubMed using the phrase “perioperative surgical home” (PSH), classifying manuscripts as either research articles, reviews, letters to the editor, or editorials. PSH abstracts were identified from American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Annual Meetings using the ASA website,* and from International Anesthesia Research Society (IARS) Annual Meetings using the final meeting programs and abstract supplements. For each identified manuscript and abstract, the zip code of the corresponding author’s institution was mapped to a longitude-latitude. The corresponding points were plotted on a map of the United States (package zipcode; R Software Foundation, Austria) using a jitter function to reduce overplotting; locations are approximate. The time line for PSH events was developed using the ASA PSH website.† A&A = Anesthesia & Analgesia; PBLD = Problem-Based Learning Discussion.
