Machine Learning-Based Gynecologic Tumor Diagnosis and Its Postoperative Incisional Infection Influence Factor Analysis.

Journal of healthcare engineering
Various factors influencing postoperative incisional infection in gynecologic tumors were analyzed, and the value of quality nursing intervention was studied. In this study, 74 surgically treated gynecologic tumor patients were randomly selected from...

Applying Machine Learning Across Sites: External Validation of a Surgical Site Infection Detection Algorithm.

Journal of the American College of Surgeons
BACKGROUND: Surgical complications have tremendous consequences and costs. Complication detection is important for quality improvement, but traditional manual chart review is burdensome. Automated mechanisms are needed to make this more efficient. To...

Accelerating Surgical Site Infection Abstraction With a Semi-automated Machine-learning Approach.

Annals of surgery
OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate that a semi-automated approach to health data abstraction provides significant efficiencies and high accuracy.

Artificial intelligence-based tools to control healthcare associated infections: A systematic review of the literature.

Journal of infection and public health
BACKGROUND: Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are the most frequent adverse events in healthcare and a global public health concern. Surveillance is the foundation for effective HAIs prevention and control. Manual surveillance is labor intensiv...

Using Natural Language Processing to improve EHR Structured Data-based Surgical Site Infection Surveillance.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Surgical Site Infection surveillance in healthcare systems is labor intensive and plagued by underreporting as current methodology relies heavily on manual chart review. The rapid adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) has the potential to allo...

Machine learning in infection management using routine electronic health records: tools, techniques, and reporting of future technologies.

Clinical microbiology and infection : the official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases
BACKGROUND: Machine learning (ML) is increasingly being used in many areas of health care. Its use in infection management is catching up as identified in a recent review in this journal. We present here a complementary review to this work.

Using artificial intelligence (AI) to predict postoperative surgical site infection: A retrospective cohort of 4046 posterior spinal fusions.

Clinical neurology and neurosurgery
OBJECTIVES: Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are rapidly growing in capability and increasingly applied to model outcomes and complications within medicine. In spinal surgery, post-operative surgical site infections (SSIs) are a rare...

Predicting the occurrence of surgical site infections using text mining and machine learning.

PloS one
In this study we propose the use of text mining and machine learning methods to predict and detect Surgical Site Infections (SSIs) using textual descriptions of surgeries and post-operative patients' records, mined from the database of a high complex...
