Predicting hospital admission at emergency department triage using machine learning.

PloS one
OBJECTIVE: To predict hospital admission at the time of ED triage using patient history in addition to information collected at triage.

Evaluation of a Novel System to Enhance Clinicians' Recognition of Preadmission Adverse Drug Reactions.

Applied clinical informatics
BACKGROUND: Often unrecognized by providers, adverse drug reactions (ADRs) diminish patients' quality of life, cause preventable admissions and emergency department visits, and increase health care costs.

Predicting post-stroke activities of daily living through a machine learning-based approach on initiating rehabilitation.

International journal of medical informatics
OBJECTIVES: Prediction of activities of daily living (ADL) is crucial for optimized care of post-stroke patients. However, no suitably-validated and practical models are currently available in clinical practice.

Mild troponin elevation in patients admitted to the emergency department with atrial fibrillation: 30-day post-discharge prognostic significance.

Internal and emergency medicine
Patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) often undergo troponin (Tn) testing in the emergency department (ED), but the clinical significance of mildly elevated values remains unclear. We evaluated short-term 30-day post-discharge outcomes in AF patient...

Predictors of in-hospital mortality following major lower extremity amputations in type 2 diabetic patients using artificial neural networks.

BMC medical research methodology
BACKGROUND: Outcome prediction is important in the clinical decision-making process. Artificial neural networks (ANN) have been used to predict the risk of post-operative events, including survival, and are increasingly being used in complex medical ...

Causality patterns and machine learning for the extraction of problem-action relations in discharge summaries.

International journal of medical informatics
Clinical narrative text includes information related to a patient's medical history such as chronological progression of medical problems and clinical treatments. A chronological view of a patient's history makes clinical audits easier and improves q...

Dense Annotation of Free-Text Critical Care Discharge Summaries from an Indian Hospital and Associated Performance of a Clinical NLP Annotator.

Journal of medical systems
Electronic Health Record (EHR) use in India is generally poor, and structured clinical information is mostly lacking. This work is the first attempt aimed at evaluating unstructured text mining for extracting relevant clinical information from Indian...
