The Efficacy of Machine Learning Models for Predicting the Prognosis of Heart Failure: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Cardiology
INTRODUCTION: Heart failure (HF) is a major global public health concern. The application of machine learning (ML) to identify individuals at high risk and enable early intervention is a promising approach for improving HF prognosis. We aim to system...

Prediction of high-risk emergency department revisits from a machine-learning algorithm: a proof-of-concept study.

BMJ health & care informatics
BACKGROUND: High-risk emergency department (ED) revisit is considered an important quality indicator that may reflect an increase in complications and medical burden. However, because of its multidimensional and highly complex nature, this factor has...

Machine learning for enhanced prognostication: predicting 30-day outcomes following posterior fossa decompression surgery for Chiari malformation type I in a pediatric cohort.

Journal of neurosurgery. Pediatrics
OBJECTIVE: Chiari malformation type I (CM-I) is a congenital disorder occurring in 0.1% of the population. In symptomatic cases, surgery with posterior fossa decompression (PFD) is the treatment of choice. Surgery is, however, associated with peri- a...

Multimodal Machine Learning for Prediction of 30-Day Readmission Risk in Elderly Population.

The American journal of medicine
BACKGROUND: Readmission within 30 days is a prevalent issue among elderly patients, linked to unfavorable health outcomes. Our objective was to develop and validate multimodal machine learning models for predicting 30-day readmission risk in elderly ...

Generalizability of machine learning models predicting 30-day unplanned readmission after primary total knee arthroplasty using a nationally representative database.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Unplanned readmission after primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) costs an average of US $39,000 per episode and negatively impacts patient outcomes. Although predictive machine learning (ML) models show promise for risk stratification in specific po...

Predictive analytics for cardiovascular patient readmission and mortality: An explainable approach.

Computers in biology and medicine
BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular patients experience high rates of adverse outcomes following discharge from hospital, which may be preventable through early identification and targeted action. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness and explaina...

Predicting 30-day unplanned hospital readmission after revision total knee arthroplasty: machine learning model analysis of a national patient cohort.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is associated with a higher risk of readmission than primary TKA. Identifying individual patients predisposed to readmission can facilitate proactive optimization and increase care efficiency. This study develop...

Machine learning models for predicting unscheduled return visits to an emergency department: a scoping review.

BMC emergency medicine
BACKGROUND: Unscheduled return visits (URVs) to emergency departments (EDs) are used to assess the quality of care in EDs. Machine learning (ML) models can incorporate a wide range of complex predictors to identify high-risk patients and reduce error...

Prediction of 30-Day Morbidity and Mortality After Conversion of Sleeve Gastrectomy to Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass: Use of an Artificial Neural Network.

The American surgeon
BACKGROUND: Conversion of sleeve gastrectomy to Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is indicated primarily for unsatisfactory weight loss or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). This study aimed to use a comprehensive database to define predictors of 30-day ...
