Predicting Intraoperative Hypoxemia with Hybrid Inference Sequence Autoencoder Networks [PDF]

Proceedings of the 31th ACM International Conference on Information and Knowledge Management (CIKM), 2022, 2021
We present an end-to-end model using streaming physiological time series to predict near-term risk for hypoxemia, a rare, but life-threatening condition known to cause serious patient harm during surgery. Inspired by the fact that a hypoxemia event is defined based on a future sequence of low SpO2 (i.e., blood oxygen saturation) instances, we propose ...

Blood Biomarker‐Based Predictive Indicator for Liver Metastasis in Alpha‐Fetoprotein‐Producing Gastric Cancer and Multi‐Omics Tumor Microenvironment Insights

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Alpha‐fetoprotein‐producing gastric cancer (AFPGC), a rare and aggressive subtype of gastric cancer, presents a high risk of liver metastasis. This study introduces the ANLiM score, a blood biomarker‐based predictive indicator for assessing liver metastasis and immunotherapy response.

Automatic Liver Segmentation from CT Images Using Deep Learning Algorithms: A Comparative Study [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Medical imaging has been employed to support medical diagnosis and treatment. It may also provide crucial information to surgeons to facilitate optimal surgical preplanning and perioperative management. Essentially, semi-automatic organ and tumor segmentation has been studied by many researchers.

Perioperative Bridging Anticoagulation in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2015
BACKGROUND It is uncertain whether bridging anticoagulation is necessary for patients with atrial fibrillation who need an interruption in warfarin treatment for an elective operation or other elective invasive procedure.

Multi‐Omics and ‐Organ Insights into Energy Metabolic Adaptations in Early Sepsis Onset

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study shows that patients at risk of sepsis have a distinct metabolite and lipid signature, including serine and aminoadipic acid, in their serum before clinical diagnosis. A mouse model of sepsis with a compatible serum signature reveals underlying metabolic changes, including mitochondrial adaptation, altered serine‐dependent purine metabolism ...

A Discrete Event Simulation Model for Coordinating Inventory Management and Material Handling in Hospitals [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
For operating rooms (ORs) and hospitals, inventory management of surgical instruments and material handling decisions of perioperative services are critical to hospitals' service levels and costs. However, efficiently integrating these decisions is challenging due to hospitals' interdependence and the uncertainties they face. These challenges motivated

Surgical Intervention and Prognosis of Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Adenoma in Elderly Patients: A Single Center Retrospective Study

AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective The incidence of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is rising among elderly patients. This study aims to investigate the clinical features of IPMN in elderly patients (≥ 60 years), analyze risk factors for high‐grade dysplasia (HGD) and invasive cancer (IC), and provide treatment recommendations for elderly patients with ...

Deep Learning Approach for Predicting 30 Day Readmissions after Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
Hospital Readmissions within 30 days after discharge following Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) Surgery are substantial contributors to healthcare costs. Many predictive models were developed to identify risk factors for readmissions. However, majority of the existing models use statistical analysis techniques with data available at discharge.
