Abstract

BACKGROUND: Predictive analytics systems may improve perioperative care by enhancing preparation for, recognition of, and response to high-risk clinical events. Bradycardia is a fairly common and unpredictable clinical event with many causes; it may be benign or become associated with hypotension requiring aggressive treatment. Our aim was to build models to predict the occurrence of clinically significant intraoperative bradycardia at 3 time points during an operative course by utilizing available preoperative electronic medical record and intraoperative anesthesia information management system data.
