Virtual Wound Care in Australian Nursing Homes: Protocol for a Pilot and Feasibility Study.

JMIR research protocols
BACKGROUND: Chronic wounds, those which have not healed in a timely manner, are a significant health and economic burden. Older people, especially those living in nursing homes, are disproportionately affected by chronic wounds, and effective managem...

Accounting for minimum data required to train a machine learning model to accurately monitor Australian dairy pastures using remote sensing.

Scientific reports
Precision in grazing management is highly dependent on accurate pasture monitoring. Typically, this is often overlooked because existing approaches are labour-intensive, need calibration, and are commonly perceived as inaccurate. Machine-learning pro...

Protocol for evaluating the fitness for purpose of an artificial intelligence product for radiology reporting in the BreastScreen New South Wales breast cancer screening programme.

BMJ open
INTRODUCTION: Radiologist shortages threaten the sustainability of breast cancer screening programmes. Artificial intelligence (AI) products that can interpret mammograms could mitigate this risk. While previous studies have suggested this technology...

Predictive analytics for cardiovascular patient readmission and mortality: An explainable approach.

Computers in biology and medicine
BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular patients experience high rates of adverse outcomes following discharge from hospital, which may be preventable through early identification and targeted action. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness and explaina...

Extracting cancer mortality statistics from death certificates: A hybrid machine learning and rule-based approach for common and rare cancers.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
OBJECTIVE: Death certificates are an invaluable source of cancer mortality statistics. However, this value can only be realised if accurate, quantitative data can be extracted from certificates-an aim hampered by both the volume and variable quality ...

A trial of retrofitted advisory collision avoidance technology in government fleet vehicles.

Accident; analysis and prevention
In-vehicle collision avoidance technology (CAT) has the potential to prevent crash involvement. In 2015, Transport for New South Wales undertook a trial of a Mobileye 560 CAT system that was installed in 34 government fleet vehicles for a period of s...

Coronary artery disease risk assessment from unstructured electronic health records using text mining.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Coronary artery disease (CAD) often leads to myocardial infarction, which may be fatal. Risk factors can be used to predict CAD, which may subsequently lead to prevention or early intervention. Patient data such as co-morbidities, medication history,...

Automatic ICD-10 classification of cancers from free-text death certificates.

International journal of medical informatics
OBJECTIVE: Death certificates provide an invaluable source for cancer mortality statistics; however, this value can only be realised if accurate, quantitative data can be extracted from certificates--an aim hampered by both the volume and variable na...
