Implicit Racial Bias and Unintentional Harm in Vascular Care
These findings indicate that implicit bias is associated with potentially harmful infrapopliteal procedures for Black patients and contributes to Black-White outcome disparities in the US. These results suggest the need for system-level interventions that transparently identify and warn of procedures not aligned with best practices to reduce the negative influence of implicit bias.
