Machine Learning Improves Prediction Over Logistic Regression on Resected Colon Cancer Patients.

The Journal of surgical research
INTRODUCTION: Despite advances, readmission and mortality rates for surgical patients with colon cancer remain high. Prediction models using regression techniques allows for risk stratification to aid periprocedural care. Technological advances have ...

Surgical Complications and Hospital Costs in Robot-Assisted Versus Conventional Laparoscopic Hysterectomy With Concurrent Sacrocolpopexy: Analysis of the Nationwide Readmissions Database.

Female pelvic medicine & reconstructive surgery
OBJECTIVES: Despite increasing use of robotic technology for minimally invasive hysterectomy with sacrocolpopexy, evidence supporting the benefits of these costly procedures remains inconclusive. This study aimed to compare differences in perioperati...

Using explainable machine learning to identify patients at risk of reattendance at discharge from emergency departments.

Scientific reports
Short-term reattendances to emergency departments are a key quality of care indicator. Identifying patients at increased risk of early reattendance could help reduce the number of missed critical illnesses and could reduce avoidable utilization of em...

The Potential Cost-Effectiveness of a Machine Learning Tool That Can Prevent Untimely Intensive Care Unit Discharge.

Value in health : the journal of the International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research
OBJECTIVES: The machine learning prediction model Pacmed Critical (PC), currently under development, may guide intensivists in their decision-making process on the most appropriate time to discharge a patient from the intensive care unit (ICU). Given...

Predictive modeling for 14-day unplanned hospital readmission risk by using machine learning algorithms.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Early unplanned hospital readmissions are associated with increased harm to patients, increased medical costs, and negative hospital reputation. With the identification of at-risk patients, a crucial step toward improving care, appropriat...

Prediction of Readmission in Geriatric Patients From Clinical Notes: Retrospective Text Mining Study.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: Prior literature suggests that psychosocial factors adversely impact health and health care utilization outcomes. However, psychosocial factors are typically not captured by the structured data in electronic medical records (EMRs) but are...

Machine Learning to Predict Outcomes and Cost by Phase of Care After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting.

The Annals of thoracic surgery
BACKGROUND: Machine learning may enhance prediction of outcomes after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). We sought to develop and validate a dynamic machine learning model to predict CABG outcomes at clinically relevant pre- and postoperative ti...

Natural language processing for prediction of readmission in posterior lumbar fusion patients: which free-text notes have the most utility?

The spine journal : official journal of the North American Spine Society
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: The increasing volume of free-text notes available in electronic health records has created an opportunity for natural language processing (NLP) algorithms to mine this unstructured data in order to detect and predict adverse outc...

Using the Super Learner algorithm to predict risk of 30-day readmission after bariatric surgery in the United States.

Surgery
BACKGROUND: Risk prediction models that estimate patient probabilities of adverse events are commonly deployed in bariatric surgery. The objective was to validate a machine learning (Super Learner) prediction model of 30-day readmission after bariatr...

Improving hospital readmission prediction using individualized utility analysis.

Journal of biomedical informatics
OBJECTIVE: Machine learning (ML) models for allocating readmission-mitigating interventions are typically selected according to their discriminative ability, which may not necessarily translate into utility in allocation of resources. Our objective w...
