Bayesian averaging over Decision Tree models for trauma severity scoring.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
Health care practitioners analyse possible risks of misleading decisions and need to estimate and quantify uncertainty in predictions. We have examined the "gold" standard of screening a patient's conditions for predicting survival probability, based...

Abdominal compartment syndrome in traumatic hemorrhagic shock: is there a fluid resuscitation inflection point associated with increased risk?

American journal of surgery
BACKGROUND: The volume of fluid administered during trauma resuscitation correlates with the risk of abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS). The exact volume at which this risk rises is uncertain. We established the inflection point for ACS risk during...

Statistical Machines for Trauma Hospital Outcomes Research: Application to the PRospective, Observational, Multi-Center Major Trauma Transfusion (PROMMTT) Study.

PloS one
Improving the treatment of trauma, a leading cause of death worldwide, is of great clinical and public health interest. This analysis introduces flexible statistical methods for estimating center-level effects on individual outcomes in the context of...

Predictive modeling in pediatric traumatic brain injury using machine learning.

BMC medical research methodology
BACKGROUND: Pediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI) constitutes a significant burden and diagnostic challenge in the emergency department (ED). While large North American research networks have derived clinical prediction rules for the head injured ch...

Automated stratification of trauma injury severity across multiple body regions using multi-modal, multi-class machine learning models.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
OBJECTIVE: The timely stratification of trauma injury severity can enhance the quality of trauma care but it requires intense manual annotation from certified trauma coders. The objective of this study is to develop machine learning models for the st...

Electronic health record machine learning model predicts trauma inpatient mortality in real time: A validation study.

The journal of trauma and acute care surgery
INTRODUCTION: Patient outcome prediction models are underused in clinical practice because of lack of integration with real-time patient data. The electronic health record (EHR) has the ability to use machine learning (ML) to develop predictive model...

Predicting outcomes after trauma: Prognostic model development based on admission features through machine learning.

Medicine
In an overcrowded emergency department (ED), trauma surgeons and emergency physicians need an accurate prognostic predictor for critical decision-making involving patients with severe trauma. We aimed to develope a machine learning-based early progno...

Are rib fractures stable? An analysis of progressive rib fracture offset in the acute trauma setting.

The journal of trauma and acute care surgery
BACKGROUND: Rib fractures serve as both a marker of injury severity and a guide for clinical decision making for trauma patients. Although recent studies have suggested that rib fractures are dynamic, the degree of progressive offset remains unknown....

Trauma outcome predictor: An artificial intelligence interactive smartphone tool to predict outcomes in trauma patients.

The journal of trauma and acute care surgery
BACKGROUND: Classic risk assessment tools often treat patients' risk factors as linear and additive. Clinical reality suggests that the presence of certain risk factors can alter the impact of other factors; in other words, risk modeling is not linea...

Development of a field artificial intelligence triage tool: Confidence in the prediction of shock, transfusion, and definitive surgical therapy in patients with truncal gunshot wounds.

The journal of trauma and acute care surgery
BACKGROUND: In-field triage tools for trauma patients are limited by availability of information, linear risk classification, and a lack of confidence reporting. We therefore set out to develop and test a machine learning algorithm that can overcome ...
