Predicting pressure injury using nursing assessment phenotypes and machine learning methods.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
OBJECTIVE: Pressure injuries are common and serious complications for hospitalized patients. The pressure injury rate is an important patient safety metric and an indicator of the quality of nursing care. Timely and accurate prediction of pressure in...

Constructing Inpatient Pressure Injury Prediction Models Using Machine Learning Techniques.

Computers, informatics, nursing : CIN
The incidence rate of pressure injury is a critical nursing quality indicator in clinic care; consequently, factors causing pressure injury are diverse and complex. The early prevention of pressure injury and monitoring of these complex high-risk fac...

Predictive Modeling of Pressure Injury Risk in Patients Admitted to an Intensive Care Unit.

American journal of critical care : an official publication, American Association of Critical-Care Nurses
BACKGROUND: Pressure injuries are an important problem in hospital care. Detecting the population at risk for pressure injuries is the first step in any preventive strategy. Available tools such as the Norton and Braden scales do not take into accoun...

A customizable deep learning model for nosocomial risk prediction from critical care notes with indirect supervision.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
OBJECTIVE: Reliable longitudinal risk prediction for hospitalized patients is needed to provide quality care. Our goal is to develop a generalizable model capable of leveraging clinical notes to predict healthcare-associated diseases 24-96 hours in a...

Convolutional neural networks for wound detection: the role of artificial intelligence in wound care.

Journal of wound care
OBJECTIVE: Telemedicine is an essential support system for clinical settings outside the hospital. Recently, the importance of the model for assessment of telemedicine (MAST) has been emphasised. The development of an eHealth-supported wound assessme...

Predicting Pressure Injury in Critical Care Patients: A Machine-Learning Model.

American journal of critical care : an official publication, American Association of Critical-Care Nurses
BACKGROUND: Hospital-acquired pressure injuries are a serious problem among critical care patients. Some can be prevented by using measures such as specialty beds, which are not feasible for every patient because of costs. However, decisions about wh...

Quantifying the human-robot interaction forces between a lower limb exoskeleton and healthy users.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
To counter the many disadvantages of prolonged wheelchair use, patients with spinal cord injuries (SCI) are beginning to turn towards robotic exoskeletons. However, we are currently unaware of the magnitude and distribution of forces acting between t...

[Effects of exogenous recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor on the healing of muscles in rats after deep tissue injury of pressure ulcers].

Zhonghua shao shang za zhi = Zhonghua shaoshang zazhi = Chinese journal of burns
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of exogenous recombinant human basic fibroblast growth factor (rhbFGF) on the healing of muscles in rats after deep tissue injury of pressure ulcers.

Body posture recognition and turning recording system for the care of bed bound patients.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
This paper proposes body posture recognition and turning recording system for assisting the care of bed bound patients in nursing homes. The system continuously detects the patient's body posture and records the length of time for each body posture. ...
