Physicochemical stability of nefopam and nefopam/droperidol solutions in polypropylene syringes for intensive care units.

European journal of hospital pharmacy : science and practice
INTRODUCTION: Nefopam has been reported to be effective in postoperative pain control with an opioid-sparing effect, but the use of nefopam can lead to nausea and vomiting. To prevent these side effects, droperidol can be mixed with nefopam. In inten...

Intelligent ICU for Autonomous Patient Monitoring Using Pervasive Sensing and Deep Learning.

Scientific reports
Currently, many critical care indices are not captured automatically at a granular level, rather are repetitively assessed by overburdened nurses. In this pilot study, we examined the feasibility of using pervasive sensing technology and artificial i...

An empirical evaluation of deep learning for ICD-9 code assignment using MIMIC-III clinical notes.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Code assignment is of paramount importance in many levels in modern hospitals, from ensuring accurate billing process to creating a valid record of patient care history. However, the coding process is tedious and subjective,...

Analysis of parameters affecting blood oxygen saturation and modeling of fuzzy logic system for inspired oxygen prediction.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Fraction of Inspired Oxygen is one of the arbitrary set ventilator parameters which has critical influence on the concentration of blood oxygen. Normally mechanical ventilators providing respiratory assistance are tuned manu...

Evaluation of a machine learning algorithm for up to 48-hour advance prediction of sepsis using six vital signs.

Computers in biology and medicine
OBJECTIVE: Sepsis remains a costly and prevalent syndrome in hospitals; however, machine learning systems can increase timely sepsis detection using electronic health records. This study validates a gradient boosted ensemble machine learning tool for...

Machine learning for the prediction of volume responsiveness in patients with oliguric acute kidney injury in critical care.

Critical care (London, England)
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Excess fluid balance in acute kidney injury (AKI) may be harmful, and conversely, some patients may respond to fluid challenges. This study aimed to develop a prediction model that can be used to differentiate between volum...
