Interrupted sleep is terrible! Interrupted sleep while being in a hospital can straightaway slow your recovery. Now an artificial intelligence based algorithm can help avoid that. Many patients get woken up at night or at dawn to have their blood pressure measured or blood tested. When all they should be doing is to rest. Researchers of this paper mean to avoid these unnecessary overnight monitoring, using a clinically based deep learning model. They’ve checked millions of data from a multi-hospital health system to train an algorithm that creates an early morning patient score: this shows who are those patients that really need to be woken up due to a risky condition. Their result? From 10,000 cases, the algorithm was wrong only 2 times. This is exactly the kind of clinical problem where we need to start A.I. research and implementation. This is so very convincing that it could enable the adoption of artificial intelligence in other areas as well. #deeplearning #research #hospitalcare #themedicalfuturist #digitalhealth #future #healthcare #medicine #technology #AI #artificialintelligence #machinelearning …see more
