Delay in ICU admissions is associated with negative outcomes such as mortality and cost. Therefore, early identification of patients with a high risk of respiratory failure can prevent complications, enhance risk stratification, and improve the outcomes of severely-ill hospitalized patients. In this paper, we develop a model that uses the characteristics and information collected at the time of patients’ admissions and during their early period of hospitalization to accurately predict whether they will need ICU admissions. We use the… More >
