Prediction of thirty-day morbidity and mortality after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy: data from an artificial neural network.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: Multiple patient factors may convey increased risk of 30-day morbidity and mortality after laparoscopic vertical sleeve gastrectomy (LVSG). Assessing the likelihood of short-term morbidity is useful for both the bariatric surgeon and pati...

Predicting Hospital Readmission: A Joint Ensemble-Learning Model.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Hospital readmission is among the most critical issues in the healthcare system due to its high prevalence and cost. The improvement effort necessitates reliable prediction models which can identify high-risk patients effectively and enable healthcar...

Hospital readmissions after limited vs. extended lymph node dissection during open and robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Urologic oncology
PURPOSE: Differences exist concerning when and how to perform lymph node dissection (LND) during radical prostatectomy due to lack of high-grade evidence to its safety and efficacy. We aimed to compare readmission rates between limited and extended L...

Readmission prediction using deep learning on electronic health records.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Unscheduled 30-day readmissions are a hallmark of Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) patients that pose significant health risks and escalate care cost. In order to reduce readmissions and curb the cost of care, it is important to initiate targeted inter...

Neural networks versus Logistic regression for 30 days all-cause readmission prediction.

Scientific reports
Heart failure (HF) is one of the leading causes of hospital admissions in the US. Readmission within 30 days after a HF hospitalization is both a recognized indicator for disease progression and a source of considerable financial burden to the health...

Development and Prospective Validation of a Machine Learning-Based Risk of Readmission Model in a Large Military Hospital.

Applied clinical informatics
BACKGROUND: Thirty-day hospital readmissions are a quality metric for health care systems. Predictive models aim to identify patients likely to readmit to more effectively target preventive strategies. Many risk of readmission models have been develo...

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 ...
