Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Stroke patients are at high risk of developing cerebral edema, which can have severe consequences. However, there are currently few effective tools for early identification or prediction of this risk. As machine learning (ML) is increasingly used in clinical practice, its effectiveness in predicting cerebral edema risk in stroke patients has been explored. Nonetheless, the lack of systematic evidence on its predictive value challenges the update of simple and user-friendly risk assessment tools. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review to evaluate the predictive utility of ML for cerebral edema in stroke patients.
