Filter by:The Movement Disorders Society (MDS) Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Part III (MDS-UPDRS III) is the primary assessment method for motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease patients. Currently, movement disorder specialists conduct semi-quantitative scoring, which entails limitations such as subjectivity, weak sensitivity, and a limited number of professional physicians. This study, based on machine vision, establishes gold standard labels according to expert scoring. By using machine learning, we develop a machine rating model and compare the model's performance with gold standard rating and general clinical rating to investigate the accuracy of machine vision-based MDS-UPDRS III machine rating.
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a common respiratory system disease characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and irreversible airflow restriction, which seriously endangers people's health. Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) refers to individuals who experience continuous deterioration beyond their daily condition and need to change their routine medication. AECOPD is usually caused by viruses and bacteria, and patients require hospitalization, which brings a huge economic burden to society. AECOPD patients often have limited activities. Because long-term chronic hypoxia causes venous blood stasis, siltation causes secondary red blood cell increase, and blood hypercoagulability, AECOPD patients have a high risk of pulmonary embolism (PE). Pulmonary Thrombo Embolism (PTE) refers to a disease caused by blockage of the pulmonary artery or its branches caused by a thrombus from the venous system or right heart. AECOPD patients experience elevated hemoglobin levels and increased blood viscosity due to long-term hypoxia. At the same time, such patients have decreased activity, venous congestion, and are prone to thrombosis. After the thrombus falls off, it can travel up the vein, causing PTE to occur in the right heart PTE is often secondary to low deep vein thrombosis (DVT). About 70% of patients were diagnosed as deep vein thrombosis in lower limb color ultrasound examination. SteinPD conducted a survey on COPD patients and general patients from multiple hospitals. The results showed that by comparing adult COPD patients with non COPD patients, the relative risk of DVT was 1.30, providing evidence for AECOPD being more likely to combine with PTE AECOPD patients with PTE have similarities in their clinical manifestations. It is difficult to distinguish between the two based solely on symptoms, such as cough, increased sputum production, increased shortness of breath, and difficulty breathing. They lack specificity and are difficult to distinguish between the two based solely on symptoms, which can easily lead to missed diagnosis. CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) is the gold standard for the diagnosis of PTE, but due to the high cost of testing and high equipment prices, its popularity in grassroots hospitals is not high. Therefore, analyzing the risk factors of AECOPD patients complicated with PTE is of great significance for early identification of PTE. At present, although there are reports on the risk factors for concurrent PTE in AECOPD patients, there is no specific predictive model for predicting PTE in AECOPD patients. In clinical practice, risk assessment tools such as the Caprini risk assessment model and the modified Geneva scale are commonly used for VTE, while the Wells score is the PTE diagnostic likelihood score. The evaluation indicators of these tools are mostly clinical symptoms, and laboratory indicators are less involved, It is difficult to comprehensively reflect the patient's condition, so the specificity of AECOPD patients with PTE is not strong. The column chart model established in this study presents a visual prediction model, which is convenient for clinical use and has positive help for the early detection of AECOPD patients with PTE. In addition, medical staff can present the calculation results of the column chart model to patients, making it easier for patients to understand. It helps improve the early identification and treatment of AECOPD combined with PTE patients, thereby improving prognosis.
This is a pragmatic trial that will measure if the use of AI to identify patients with complex care needs and language barriers, as well as active reaching out to clinicians to offer the use of interpreter services will improve the frequency of interpreter use and reduce the time to first interpreter use
People with shoulder musculoskeletal disorders among middle-aged and older adults have the highest need of rehabilitation services. The population growth and aging society subsequently increase the number of disabled people, the healthcare costs and the needs for healthcare professionals. The evidence exists to support the beneficial effect of exercises on function and quality of life. Traditionally, a rehabilitation program is designed by therapists for each patient depending on their conditions. In recent years, AI is increasingly being employed in the field of physical and rehabilitation medicine, however, there is no study of applying AI in predicting rehabilitation programs for shoulder musculoskeletal disorders. The main purpose of this study is to explore the possibilities of using supervised machine learning approach to predict rehabilitation programs for shoulder musculoskeletal disorders. Twenty-three features are identified based on shoulder range of motion, pain, whether or not perform surgical procedure. Each exercise is considered as a label with a total of twenty-five exercises. Dataset is collected by clinical therapists to develop and train the model. Each patient has to receive at least two months of rehabilitation and two times of evaluation. Logistic regression, support vector machine and random forest are used to build the computational model. Accuracy, precision, recall, F-1 score and AUC are used to evaluate the performance of the computational model in machine learning. After training, we compare the consistency of rehabilitation programs predicted by using machine learning model and the clinical decision making of therapists.
This observational retrospective study aims to learn about the incidence of acute kidney (AKI) injury in newborns in infants exposed to nephrotoxic drugs with a big data approach. The main question it aims to answer are: - Develop a model that can predict the occurrence of AKI in infants admitted to the NICU; - Identify the drug or combination of drugs associated with an increased risk of AKI. The group of infants exposed to drugs will be defined based on exposure for at least 1-day tone one or more therapies commonly used in the NICU. Once the AKI event has occurred, the observation of the trend of daily creatinine and diuresis values will be continued for the period covered by the study.
Predicting surgical risks are important to patients and clinicians for shared decision making process and management plan. The study team aim to conduct a hybrid type 1 effectiveness implementation study design. A Randomized Controlled Trial where participants undergoing surgery In Singapore General Hospital (SGH) will be allocated in 1:1 ratio to CARES-guided (unblinded to risk level) or to unguided (blinded to risk level) groups. All participants undergoing elective surgeries in SGH will be considered eligible for enrolment into the study. For elective surgeries, the participants will mainly be recruited from Pre-admission Centre. The outcome of this study will help patients and clinicians make better decisions together. Firstly, the deployment of the CARES model in a live clinical environment could potentially reduce postoperative complications and improve the quality of surgical care provision. The findings from this study would allow fine-tuning of CARES as well as further deployment of additional risk models for specific complications other than Mortality and ICU stay. This in turn would translate to better health for the surgical population and improved cost-effectiveness. This is significant as the surgical population is expected to continuously grow due to improved access to care, better technologies and the aging population. Secondly, IMAGINATIVE will be instrumental in improving our understanding of the deployment strategies for AI/ML predictive models in healthcare. Models such as CARES could be the standard of care in the future if proven to improve the health outcomes of patients. As model deployments are costly and can be disruptive to the EMR processes, this study would be the initial spark for future deployment and health services research focusing on improving the value of these model deployments.
