Determining the cause of death of hospitalized patients with cardiovascular disease is of the utmost importance. This is usually recorded in free text form. In this study we aimed to develop a series of supervised natural language processing algorith...
BACKGROUND: Acute hypotensive episodes (AHE), defined as a drop in the mean arterial pressure (MAP) <65 mm Hg lasting at least 5 consecutive minutes, are among the most critical events in the intensive care unit (ICU). They are known to be associated...
BACKGROUND: Although prediction of hospital readmissions has been studied in medical patients, it has received relatively little attention in surgical patient populations. Published predictors require information only available at the moment of disch...
