Abstract

BACKGROUND: Stroke recurrence readmission poses an additional burden on both patients and healthcare systems. Risk stratification aims to accurately divide patients into groups to provide targeted interventions at reducing readmission. To accurately predict short and intermediate-term risks of readmission and provide information for further temporal risk stratification, we developed and validated an interpretable machine learning risk scoring tool.
