Existing assessment pathways for acute chest pain are often resource-intensive, prolonged, and expensive. In this review, the authors describe existing chest pain pathways and current issues at the patient and system level, and provide an overview of...
BACKGROUND: Emergency Department (ED) overcrowding is an emerging risk to patient safety. This study aims to assess and compare the predictive ability of machine learning (ML) models for predicting frequent ED users.
Syncope is a commonly encountered problem in the emergency department (ED), accounting for approximately 3% of presenting complaints. Clinical assessment of syncope can be challenging due to the diverse range of conditions that can precipitate the sy...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Emergency department (ED) overcrowding is a national crisis in which pediatric patients are often prioritized at lower levels. Because the prediction of prognosis for pediatric patients is important but difficult, we develo...
OBJECTIVE: Wound infection is prevalent in home healthcare (HHC) and often leads to hospitalizations. However, none of the previous studies of wounds in HHC have used data from clinical notes. Therefore, the authors created a more accurate descriptio...
