The predictive role of identifying frailty in assessing the need for palliative care in the elderly: the application of machine learning algorithm.

Journal of health, population, and nutrition
BACKGROUND: Palliative care is a key component of integrated care to improve care quality and reduce hospitalization costs for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study aims to use machine learning algorithms to create an...

Frailty identification using a sensor-based upper-extremity function test: a deep learning approach.

Scientific reports
The global increase in the older adult population highlights the need for effective frailty assessment, a condition linked to adverse health outcomes such as hospitalization and mortality. Existing frailty assessment tools, like the Fried phenotype a...

An artificial intelligence perspective on geriatric syndromes: assessing the information accuracy and readability of ChatGPT.

European geriatric medicine
PURPOSE: ChatGPT, a comprehensive language processing model, provides the opportunity for supportive and professional interactions with patients. However, its use to address patients' frequently asked questions (FAQs) and the readability of the text ...

Using the Geriatric Emergency Perioperative Risk Index Derived From Artificial Intelligence Algorithms to Predict Outcomes of Geriatric Emergency General Surgery.

The Journal of surgical research
INTRODUCTION: The objective of this study was to employ artificial intelligence (AI) technology for the development of a model that can accurately forecast the outcome of emergency general surgery (EGS) in elderly patients. Additionally, an innovativ...

Machine Learning Models for Frailty Classification of Older Adults in Northern Thailand: Model Development and Validation Study.

JMIR aging
BACKGROUND: Frailty is defined as a clinical state of increased vulnerability due to the age-associated decline of an individual's physical function resulting in increased morbidity and mortality when exposed to acute stressors. Early identification ...

Machine learning based on nutritional assessment to predict adverse events in older inpatients with possible sarcopenia.

Aging clinical and experimental research
BACKGROUND: The accuracy of current tools for predicting adverse events in older inpatients with possible sarcopenia is still insufficient to develop individualized nutrition-related management strategies. The objectives were to develop a machine lea...

Machine Learning to Predict Mortality in Older Patients With Cancer: Development and External Validation of the Geriatric Cancer Scoring System Using Two Large French Cohorts.

Journal of clinical oncology : official journal of the American Society of Clinical Oncology
PURPOSE: Establishing an accurate prognosis remains challenging in older patients with cancer because of the population's heterogeneity and the current predictive models' reduced ability to capture the complex interactions between oncologic and geria...

Development and Validation of a Machine Learning Method Using Vocal Biomarkers for Identifying Frailty in Community-Dwelling Older Adults: Cross-Sectional Study.

JMIR medical informatics
BACKGROUND: The two most commonly used methods to identify frailty are the frailty phenotype and the frailty index. However, both methods have limitations in clinical application. In addition, methods for measuring frailty have not yet been standardi...

Predicting admission for fall-related injuries in older adults using artificial intelligence: A proof-of-concept study.

Geriatrics & gerontology international
AIM: Pre-injury frailty has been investigated as a tool to predict outcomes of older trauma patients. Using artificial intelligence principles of machine learning, we aimed to identify a "signature" (combination of clinical variables) that could pred...

Frailty Modeling Using Machine Learning Methodologies: A Systematic Review With Discussions on Outstanding Questions.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Studying frailty is crucial for enhancing the health and quality of life among older adults, refining healthcare delivery methods, and tackling the obstacles linked to an aging demographic. Approaches to frailty modeling often utilise simple analytic...
