The Artificial Intelligence Clinician learns optimal treatment strategies for sepsis in intensive care.

Nature medicine
Sepsis is the third leading cause of death worldwide and the main cause of mortality in hospitals, but the best treatment strategy remains uncertain. In particular, evidence suggests that current practices in the administration of intravenous fluids ...

Machine learning based framework to predict cardiac arrests in a paediatric intensive care unit : Prediction of cardiac arrests.

Journal of clinical monitoring and computing
A cardiac arrest is a life-threatening event, often fatal. Whilst clinicians classify some of the cardiac arrests as potentially predictable, the majority are difficult to identify even in a post-incident analysis. Changes in some patients' physiolog...

Big data and machine learning in critical care: Opportunities for collaborative research.

Medicina intensiva
The introduction of clinical information systems (CIS) in Intensive Care Units (ICUs) offers the possibility of storing a huge amount of machine-ready clinical data that can be used to improve patient outcomes and the allocation of resources, as well...

Machine Learning for Outcome Prediction in Electroencephalograph (EEG)-Monitored Children in the Intensive Care Unit.

Journal of child neurology
The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of models predicting in-hospital mortality in critically ill children undergoing continuous electroencephalography (cEEG) in the intensive care unit (ICU). We evaluated the performance of machine ...

Using artificial intelligence to predict prolonged mechanical ventilation and tracheostomy placement.

The Journal of surgical research
BACKGROUND: Early identification of critically ill patients who will require prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) has proven to be difficult. The purpose of this study was to use machine learning to identify patients at risk for PMV and tracheostom...

A Novel Neural Network Model for Blood Pressure Estimation Using Photoplethesmography without Electrocardiogram.

Journal of healthcare engineering
The prevention, evaluation, and treatment of hypertension have attracted increasing attention in recent years. As photoplethysmography (PPG) technology has been widely applied to wearable sensors, the noninvasive estimation of blood pressure (BP) usi...

High-Dose Vitamin D Administration Is Associated With Increases in Hemoglobin Concentrations in Mechanically Ventilated Critically Ill Adults: A Pilot Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Trial.

JPEN. Journal of parenteral and enteral nutrition
BACKGROUND: Anemia and vitamin D deficiency are highly prevalent in critical illness, and vitamin D status has been associated with hemoglobin concentrations in epidemiologic studies. We examined the effect of high-dose vitamin D therapy on hemoglobi...
