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.
美国疾病控制与预防中心(CDC)将健康的社会决定因素(SDOH)定义为“人们出生、生活、学习、工作、娱乐、礼拜和衰老的环境中的条件,这些条件会影响一系列健康、功能以及生活质量的结果和风险”,其中包括经济稳定性、获得优质医疗保健的机会以及物理环境。越来越多的证据表明,健康的社会决定因素在塑造患者接受手术的机会和术后恢复方面具有影响。本综述评估了外科医生在减少这些差异方面所起的作用。
