- Abstract summary: Inpatient length of stay (LoS) is an important managerial metric which if known in advance can be used to efficiently plan admissions, allocate resources and improve care.
Using historical patient data and machine learning techniques, LoS prediction models can be developed.
Ethically, these models can not be used for patient discharge in lieu of unit heads but are of utmost necessity for hospital management systems in charge of effective hospital planning.

- Abstract: Inpatient length of stay (LoS) is an important managerial metric which if
known in advance can be used to efficiently plan admissions, allocate resources
and improve care. Using historical patient data and machine learning
techniques, LoS prediction models can be developed. Ethically, these models can
not be used for patient discharge in lieu of unit heads but are of utmost
necessity for hospital management systems in charge of effective hospital
planning. Therefore, the design of the prediction system should be adapted to
work in a true hospital setting. In this study, we predict early hospital LoS
at the granular level of admission units by applying domain adaptation to
leverage information learned from a potential source domain. Time-varying data
from 110,079 and 60,492 patient stays to 8 and 9 intensive care units were
respectively extracted from eICU-CRD and MIMIC-IV. These were fed into a
Long-Short Term Memory and a Fully connected network to train a source domain
model, the weights of which were transferred either partially or fully to
initiate training in target domains. Shapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP)
algorithms were used to study the effect of weight transfer on model
explanability. Compared to the benchmark, the proposed weight transfer model
showed statistically significant gains in prediction accuracy (between 1% and
5%) as well as computation time (up to 2hrs) for some target domains. The
proposed method thus provides an adapted clinical decision support system for
hospital management that can ease processes of data access via ethical
committee, computation infrastructures and time.

Predicting hospital length of stay (LOS) reliably is an essential need for efficient resource allocation at hospitals.
Traditional predictive modeling tools frequently have difficulty acquiring sufficient and diverse data because healthcare institutions have privacy rules in place.
This modeling approach facilitates collaborative model training by modeling decentralized data sources from different hospitals without extracting sensitive data outside of hospitals.

It is specifically designed to mitigate common challenges with Electronic Health Records, such as skewness, irregular sampling and missing data.
By adding prediction as a side-task, we can improve performance further still, resulting in a mean absolute deviation of 1.55 days (eICU) and 2.28 days (MIMIC-IV) on predicting remaining length of stay.

equivariant neural networks have gained increased interest in the deep learning community.
They have been successfully applied in the medical domain where symmetries in the data can be effectively exploited to build more accurate and robust models.
Mobile, on-device implementations of deep learning solutions have been developed for medical applications.
However, equivariant models are commonly implemented using large and computationally expensive architectures, not suitable to run on mobile devices.
In this work, we design and test an equivariant version of MobileNetV2 and further optimize it with model quantization to enable more efficient inference.
