Incidence and Predictors of Postoperative Need for High-Dose Inotropic Support in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery for Infective Endocarditis.

Journal of cardiothoracic and vascular anesthesia
OBJECTIVE: Patients with infective endocarditis undergoing cardiac surgery are a high-risk population. Few data on incidence and predictors of need for high-dose inotropic support in this setting are currently available.

Predicting the physiological response of Tivela stultorum hearts with digoxin from cardiac parameters using artificial neural networks.

Bio Systems
Multi-layer perceptron artificial neural networks (MLP-ANNs) were used to predict the concentration of digoxin needed to obtain a cardio-activity of specific biophysical parameters in Tivela stultorum hearts. The inputs of the neural networks were th...

Using machine learning to model dose-response relationships.

Journal of evaluation in clinical practice
RATIONALE, AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: Establishing the relationship between various doses of an exposure and a response variable is integral to many studies in health care. Linear parametric models, widely used for estimating dose-response relationships, h...

Congestive heart failure information extraction framework for automated treatment performance measures assessment.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
OBJECTIVE: This paper describes a new congestive heart failure (CHF) treatment performance measure information extraction system - CHIEF - developed as part of the Automated Data Acquisition for Heart Failure project, a Veterans Health Administration...
