• Authors: David Quesada, Pedro Larra\~naga, Concha Bielza
• Abstract summary: Knowing beforehand the severity of a patients illness can improve its treatment and the organization of resources. We illustrate this issue in a dataset consistent of Spanish COVID-19 patients from the sixth epidemic wave. We combine the use of dynamic Bayesian networks, to forecast the vital signs and the blood analysis results of patients over the next 40 hours, and neural networks, to evaluate the severity of a patients disease in that interval of time.

• Abstract: When we face patients arriving to a hospital suffering from the effects of some illness, one of the main problems we can encounter is evaluating whether or not said patients are going to require intensive care in the near future. This intensive care requires allotting valuable and scarce resources, and knowing beforehand the severity of a patients illness can improve both its treatment and the organization of resources. We illustrate this issue in a dataset consistent of Spanish COVID-19 patients from the sixth epidemic wave where we label patients as critical when they either had to enter the intensive care unit or passed away. We then combine the use of dynamic Bayesian networks, to forecast the vital signs and the blood analysis results of patients over the next 40 hours, and neural networks, to evaluate the severity of a patients disease in that interval of time. Our empirical results show that the transposition of the current state of a patient to future values with the DBN for its subsequent use in classification obtains better the accuracy and g-mean score than a direct application with a classifier.

  We propose a pipeline that groups intensive care unit patients by the trajectories of observations data throughout their stay. Applying the pipeline to data from just the first four hours of each ICU stay assigns the majority of patients to the same cluster as when the entire stay duration is considered.

• Dynamic Healthcare Embeddings for Improving Patient Care [0.0]
  We propose DECENT, an auto-encoding heterogeneous co-evolving dynamic neural network, for learning dynamic embeddings of patients, doctors, rooms, and medications. The results of using the learned patient embeddings in predictive modeling show that DECENT has a gain of up to 48.1% on the mortality risk prediction task. Case studies on the learned doctor, medication, and room embeddings show that our approach learns meaningful and interpretable embeddings.

  It is important that the patient discharge task addresses the nuanced trade-off between decreasing a patient's length of stay and the risk of readmission or even death following the discharge decision. This work introduces an end-to-end general framework for capturing this trade-off to recommend optimal discharge timing decisions. A data-driven approach is used to derive a parsimonious, discrete state space representation that captures a patient's physiological condition.
