Early prediction of multiple organ failure for sepsis patients based on machine learning algorithms

Journal of Intelligent Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract In recent years, there has been a notable rise in sepsis incidence leading to more multiple organ failure and higher mortality. The lack of effective treatments for sepsis highlights the importance of early prediction in preventing multiple organ failure. This study aimed to develop a model for the early prediction of multiple organ failure in

Barriers to nutrition following neurosurgery: A descriptive cohort study

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Neurological trauma results in a state of hypermetabolism. Existing literature has explored barriers to adequate nutrition following traumatic brain injury. Despite clinical similarities, it remains unclear whether similar nutritional barriers are faced following both planned and emergency neurosurgical procedures.

New scoring system (APACHE-HF) for predicting adverse outcomes in patients with acute heart failure: Evaluation of the APACHE II and Modified APACHE II scoring systems [PDF]

Journal of Cardiology, 2014
No scoring system for assessing acute heart failure (AHF) has been reported.Data for 824 AHF patients were analyzed. The subjects were divided into an alive (n=750) and a dead group (n=74). We constructed a predictive scoring system based on eight significant APACHE II factors in the alive group [mean arterial pressure (MAP), pulse, sodium, potassium ...

Deresuscitation Informed by Ultrasound in Patients with Septic Shock Trial

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The venous excess ultrasound (VExUS) can be used at the point‐of‐care to identify venous overload and end‐organ congestion in an effort to individually tailor resuscitation and deresuscitation in patients with septic shock. Methods We conducted a pilot randomized controlled feasibility trial of VExUS‐guided fluid management in adult patients
