Journal ArticleDOI

Scalable and accurate deep learning for electronic health records

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a representation of patients' entire, raw EHR records based on the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) format and demonstrated that deep learning methods using this representation are capable of accurately predicting multiple medical events from multiple centers without site-specific data harmonization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Serum Lactate as a Predictor of Mortality in Emergency Department Patients with Infection

TL;DR: The results support serum venous lactate level as a promising risk-stratification tool in this cohort of ED patients with signs and symptoms suggestive of infection, and multi-enter validation needs to be done before widespread implementation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quick Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment, Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome, and Early Warning Scores for Detecting Clinical Deterioration in Infected Patients outside the Intensive Care Unit.

TL;DR: Commonly used early warning scores are more accurate than the qSOFA score for predicting death and ICU transfer in non‐ICU patients, and these results suggest that the qsoFA score should not replace general earlywarning scores when risk‐stratifying patients with suspected infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acid-suppressive medication use and the risk for hospital-acquired pneumonia.

TL;DR: In this large, hospital-based pharmacoepidemiologic cohort, acid-suppressive medication use was associated with 30% increased odds of hospital-acquired pneumonia.
