Predictors of emergency department opioid administration and prescribing: A machine learning approach.

The American journal of emergency medicine
INTRODUCTION: The opioid epidemic has altered normative clinical perceptions on addressing both acute and chronic pain, particularly within the Emergency Department (ED) setting, where providers are now confronted with balancing pain management and p...

Developing an Improved Statistical Approach for Survival Estimation in Bone Metastases Management: The Bone Metastases Ensemble Trees for Survival (BMETS) Model.

International journal of radiation oncology, biology, physics
PURPOSE: To determine whether a machine learning approach optimizes survival estimation for patients with symptomatic bone metastases (SBM), we developed the Bone Metastases Ensemble Trees for Survival (BMETS) to predict survival using 27 prognostic ...

Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy Associated with Decreased Persistent Postoperative Opioid Use.

Journal of endourology
Minimally invasive surgery offers reduced pain and opioid use postoperatively compared with open surgery, but large-scale comparative studies are lacking. We assessed the incidence of persistent opioid use after open and robot-assisted radical prost...

Machine Learning Based Opioid Overdose Prediction Using Electronic Health Records.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Opioid addiction in the United States has come to national attention as opioid overdose (OD) related deaths have risen at alarming rates. Combating opioid epidemic becomes a high priority for not only governments but also healthcare providers. This d...

Rapid Assessment of Opioid Exposure and Treatment in Cities Through Robotic Collection and Chemical Analysis of Wastewater.

Journal of medical toxicology : official journal of the American College of Medical Toxicology
INTRODUCTION: Accurate data regarding opioid use, overdose, and treatment is important in guiding community efforts at combating the opioid epidemic. Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is a potential method to quantify community-level trends of opio...

The Detection of Opioid Misuse and Heroin Use From Paramedic Response Documentation: Machine Learning for Improved Surveillance.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: Timely, precise, and localized surveillance of nonfatal events is needed to improve response and prevention of opioid-related problems in an evolving opioid crisis in the United States. Records of naloxone administration found in prehospi...

Physicochemical stability of an admixture of lidocaine and ketamine in polypropylene syringe used in opioid-free anaesthesia.

European journal of hospital pharmacy : science and practice
OBJECTIVES: Opioid-free anaesthesia is a treatment strategy of pain management based on the use of drugs such as lidocaine, ketamine and dexmedetomidine that do not interact significantly with opioid receptors. In particular, these drugs are used by ...

Computational Systems Pharmacology-Target Mapping for Fentanyl-Laced Cocaine Overdose.

ACS chemical neuroscience
The United States of America is fighting against one of its worst-ever drug crises. Over 900 people a week die from opioid- or heroin-related overdoses, while millions more suffer from opioid prescription addiction. Recently, drug overdoses caused by...
