BACKGROUND: Stroke-associated Hospital Acquired Pneumonia (HAP) significantly impacts patient outcomes. This study explores the utility of machine learning models in predicting HAP in stroke patients, leveraging national registry data and SHapley Add...
BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) and acute kidney disease (AKD) are prevalent among pediatric patients, both linked to increased mortality and extended hospital stays. Early detection of kidney injury is crucial for improving outcomes. This stud...
BACKGROUND: Surgical site infections (SSIs) lead to increased mortality and morbidity, as well as increased healthcare costs. Multiple models for the prediction of this serious surgical complication have been developed, with an increasing use of mach...
