Predicting Risk of 30-Day Readmissions Using Two Emerging Machine Learning Methods.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Decades-long research efforts have shown that Heart Failure (HF) is the most expensive diagnosis for hospitalizations and the most frequent diagnosis for 30-day readmissions. If risk stratification for readmission of HF patients could be carried out ...

Speech2Health: A Mobile Framework for Monitoring Dietary Composition From Spoken Data.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Diet and physical activity are known as important lifestyle factors in self-management and prevention of many chronic diseases. Mobile sensors such as accelerometers have been used to measure physical activity or detect eating time. In many intervent...

Postoperative neonatal mortality prediction using superlearning.

The Journal of surgical research
BACKGROUND: The variable risks associated with neonatal surgery present a challenge to accurate mortality prediction. We aimed to apply superlearning, an ensemble machine learning method, to the prediction of 30-day neonatal postoperative mortality.

Population-Based Analysis of Histologically Confirmed Melanocytic Proliferations Using Natural Language Processing.

JAMA dermatology
IMPORTANCE: Population-based information on the distribution of histologic diagnoses associated with skin biopsies is unknown. Electronic medical records (EMRs) enable automated extraction of pathology report data to improve our epidemiologic underst...

Comparison of Machine Learning Algorithms for the Prediction of Preventable Hospital Readmissions.

Journal for healthcare quality : official publication of the National Association for Healthcare Quality
A diverse universe of statistical models in the literature aim to help hospitals understand the risk factors of their preventable readmissions. However, these models are usually not necessarily applicable in other contexts, fail to achieve good discr...

Calibration drift in regression and machine learning models for acute kidney injury.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
OBJECTIVE: Predictive analytics create opportunities to incorporate personalized risk estimates into clinical decision support. Models must be well calibrated to support decision-making, yet calibration deteriorates over time. This study explored the...

Development of an automated assessment tool for MedWatch reports in the FDA adverse event reporting system.

Journal of the American Medical Informatics Association : JAMIA
OBJECTIVE: As the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) receives over a million adverse event reports associated with medication use every year, a system is needed to aid FDA safety evaluators in identifying reports most likely to demonstrate causal ...
