INTRODUCTION: Treatment in the intensive care unit (ICU) generates complex data where machine learning (ML) modelling could be beneficial. Using routine hospital data, we evaluated the ability of multiple ML models to predict inpatient mortality in a...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI) holds immense potential for enhancing clinical and administrative health care tasks. However, slow adoption and implementation challenges highlight the need to consider how humans can effectively collaborate w...
BACKGROUND: A prediction model that estimates mortality at admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) is of potential benefit to both patients and society. Logistic regression models like Simplified Acute Physiology Score 3 (SAPS 3) and APACHE are th...
We developed an interpretable machine learning algorithm that prospectively predicts the risk of thrombocytopenia in older critically ill patients during their stay in the intensive care unit (ICU), ultimately aiding clinical decision-making and impr...
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To develop the COVid Veteran (COVet) score for clinical deterioration in Veterans hospitalized with COVID-19 and further validate this model in both Veteran and non-Veteran samples. No such score has been derived and validat...
BMC medical informatics and decision making
Jul 16, 2024
BACKGROUND: Despite the significance and prevalence of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), its detection remains highly variable and inconsistent. In this work, we aim to develop an algorithm (ARDSFlag) to automate the diagnosis of ARDS based...
IMPORTANCE: Treatment for intracranial pressure (ICP) has been increasingly informed by machine learning (ML)-derived ICP waveform characteristics. There are gaps, however, in understanding how ICP monitor type may bias waveform characteristics used ...
AIM: This research examines the effects of artificial intelligence (AI)-based decision support systems (DSS) on the operational processes of nurses in critical care units (CCU) located in Amman, Jordan.
Federated learning (FL) has emerged as a significant method for developing machine learning models across multiple devices without centralized data collection. Candidemia, a critical but rare disease in ICUs, poses challenges in early detection and t...
Antimicrobial resistance and infection control
Jul 6, 2024
BACKGROUND: Multidrug-resistant organisms (MDRO) pose a significant threat to public health. Intensive Care Units (ICU), characterized by the extensive use of antimicrobial agents and a high prevalence of bacterial resistance, are hotspots for MDRO p...
