Feature-weighted survival learning machine for COPD failure prediction.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) yields a high rate of failures such as hospital readmission and death in the United States, Canada and worldwide. COPD failure imposes a significant social and economic burden on society, and predicting su...

Assessment of Machine Learning vs Standard Prediction Rules for Predicting Hospital Readmissions.

JAMA network open
IMPORTANCE: Hospital readmissions are associated with patient harm and expense. Ways to prevent hospital readmissions have focused on identifying patients at greatest risk using prediction scores.

Machine learning-based prediction of heart failure readmission or death: implications of choosing the right model and the right metrics.

ESC heart failure
AIMS: Machine learning (ML) is widely believed to be able to learn complex hidden interactions from the data and has the potential in predicting events such as heart failure (HF) readmission and death. Recent studies have revealed conflicting results...

Can AI Help Reduce Disparities in General Medical and Mental Health Care?

AMA journal of ethics
BACKGROUND: As machine learning becomes increasingly common in health care applications, concerns have been raised about bias in these systems' data, algorithms, and recommendations. Simply put, as health care improves for some, it might not improve ...

Machine learning modeling for predicting hospital readmission following lumbar laminectomy.

Journal of neurosurgery. Spine
In BriefAuthors of this study analyzed hospital readmissions following laminectomy and developed predictive models to identify readmitted patients with an accuracy >95% when using all variables and >79% when using only predischarge variables. A model...

Impact of a Pharmacist-Led Intervention on 30-Day Readmission and Assessment of Factors Predictive of Readmission in African American Men With Heart Failure.

American journal of men's health
Heart failure (HF) is responsible for more 30-day readmissions than any other condition. Minorities, particularly African American males (AAM), are at much higher risk for readmission than the general population. In this study, demographic, social, a...

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...

Identify and monitor clinical variation using machine intelligence: a pilot in colorectal surgery.

Journal of clinical monitoring and computing
Standardized clinical pathways are useful tool to reduce variation in clinical management and may improve quality of care. However the evidence supporting a specific clinical pathway for a patient or patient population is often imperfect limiting ado...

Predicting the risk of acute care readmissions among rehabilitation inpatients: A machine learning approach.

Journal of biomedical informatics
INTRODUCTION: Readmission from inpatient rehabilitation facilities to acute care hospitals is a serious problem. This study aims to develop a predictive model based on machine learning algorithms to identify patients at high risk of readmission.
