BackgroundHospitalized patients with blood cancer face an elevated risk for cardiovascular diseases caused by cardiotoxic cancer therapies, which can lead to cardiovascular-related unplanned readmissions.ObjectiveWe aimed to develop a machine learnin...
BACKGROUND: Heart failure (HF) impacts nearly 6 million individuals in the U.S., with a projected 46% increase by 2030, is creating significant healthcare burdens. Predictive models, particularly machine learning (ML)-based models, offer promising so...
The COmmunicating Narrative Concerns Entered by RNs (CONCERN) early warning system (EWS) uses real-time nursing surveillance documentation patterns in its machine learning algorithm to identify deterioration risk. We conducted a 1-year, multisite, pr...
OBJECTIVE: A report from the Canadian Institute for Health Information found unplanned hospital readmissions (UHR) common, costly, and potentially avoidable, estimating a $1.8 billion cost to the Canadian healthcare system associated with inpatient r...
