Congrats to Neil, Adrian, and Steffi on their new publication in JAMA Surgery! They led a nonrandomized trial evaluating a “nudge” intervention embedded in the electronic health record to decrease use of low-value axillary surgery for older patients with ER+ breast cancer. The nudge was widely successful and decreased use of SLNB by about 50% over the study period. This study included a strong collaborative component with researchers from breast surgical oncology, general internal medicine, statisticians, and AI/ML experts.
