Machine Learning Readmission Risk Modeling: A Pediatric Case Study.

BioMed research international
BACKGROUND: Hospital readmission prediction in pediatric hospitals has received little attention. Studies have focused on the readmission frequency analysis stratified by disease and demographic/geographic characteristics but there are no predictive ...

Predicting discharge placement after elective surgery for lumbar spinal stenosis using machine learning methods.

European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society
PURPOSE: An excessive amount of total hospitalization is caused by delays due to patients waiting to be placed in a rehabilitation facility or skilled nursing facility (RF/SNF). An accurate preoperative prediction of who would need a RF/SNF place aft...

Development of a machine learning algorithm predicting discharge placement after surgery for spondylolisthesis.

European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society
PURPOSE: We aimed to develop a machine learning algorithm that can accurately predict discharge placement in patients undergoing elective surgery for degenerative spondylolisthesis.

Assessment of Time-Series Machine Learning Methods for Forecasting Hospital Discharge Volume.

JAMA network open
IMPORTANCE: Forecasting the volume of hospital discharges has important implications for resource allocation and represents an opportunity to improve patient safety at periods of elevated risk.

An improved support vector machine-based diabetic readmission prediction.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: In healthcare systems, the cost of unplanned readmission accounts for a large proportion of total hospital payment. Hospital-specific readmission rate becomes a critical issue around the world. Quantification and early ident...

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...
