Continuous Prediction of Mortality in the PICU: A Recurrent Neural Network Model in a Single-Center Dataset.
Develop, as a proof of concept, a recurrent neural network model using electronic medical records data capable of continuously assessing an individual child's risk of mortality throughout their ICU stay as a proxy measure of severity of illness. ⋯ The recurrent neural network model can process hundreds of input variables contained in a patient's electronic medical record and integrate them dynamically as measurements become available. Its high discrimination suggests the recurrent neural network's potential to provide an accurate, continuous, and real-time assessment of a child in the ICU.
