• Abstract summary: Sepsis is a syndrome that develops in the body in response to the presence of an infection. Current machine learning algorithms have demonstrated poor performance and are insufficient for anticipating sepsis onset early. We propose a novel but realistic prediction framework that predicts sepsis onset each morning using the most recent data collected the previous night.

• Abstract: Sepsis is a syndrome that develops in the body in response to the presence of an infection. Characterized by severe organ dysfunction, sepsis is one of the leading causes of mortality in Intensive Care Units (ICUs) worldwide. These complications can be reduced through early application of antibiotics. Hence, the ability to anticipate the onset of sepsis early is crucial to the survival and well-being of patients. Current machine learning algorithms deployed inside medical infrastructures have demonstrated poor performance and are insufficient for anticipating sepsis onset early. Recently, deep learning methodologies have been proposed to predict sepsis, but some fail to capture the time of onset (e.g., classifying patients' entire visits as developing sepsis or not) and others are unrealistic for deployment in clinical settings (e.g., creating training instances using a fixed time to onset, where the time of onset needs to be known apriori). In this paper, we first propose a novel but realistic prediction framework that predicts each morning whether sepsis onset will occur within the next 24 hours using the most recent data collected the previous night, when patient-provider ratios are higher due to cross-coverage resulting in limited observation to each patient. However, as we increase the prediction rate into daily, the number of negative instances will increase, while that of positive instances remain the same. This causes a severe class imbalance problem making it hard to capture these rare sepsis cases. To address this, we propose a nightly profile representation learning (NPRL) approach. We prove that NPRL can theoretically alleviate the rare event problem and our empirical study using data from a level-1 trauma center demonstrates the effectiveness of our proposal.
