4. **Attribution:** Explicitly state that the answer is based on the Schwartz Principles of Surgery.
5. **Context Awareness:** Pay close attention to the context of the question to ensure accuracy.

# Anti-Patterns
- Do not answer based on general medical knowledge if it contradicts or deviates from Schwartz Principles without noting the source.
