• Abstract: Few studies have investigated the diagnostic utilities of biomarkers for predicting bacteremia among septic patients admitted to intensive care units (ICU). Therefore, this study evaluated the prediction power of laboratory biomarkers to utilize those markers with high performance to optimize the predictive model for bacteremia. This retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted at the ICU department of Gyeongsang National University Changwon Hospital in 2019. Adult patients qualifying SEPSIS-3 (increase in sequential organ failure score greater than or equal to 2) criteria with at least two sets of blood culture were selected. Collected data was initially analyzed independently to identify the significant predictors, which was then used to build the multivariable logistic regression (MLR) model. A total of 218 patients with 48 cases of true bacteremia were analyzed in this research. Both CRP and PCT showed a substantial area under the curve (AUC) value for discriminating bacteremia among septic patients (0.757 and 0.845, respectively). To further enhance the predictive accuracy, we combined PCT, bilirubin, neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelets, lactic acid, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score to build the predictive model with an AUC of 0.907 (95% CI, 0.843 to 0.956). In addition, a high association between bacteremia and mortality rate was discovered through the survival analysis (0.004). While PCT is certainly a useful index for distinguishing patients with and without bacteremia by itself, our MLR model indicates that the accuracy of bacteremia prediction substantially improves by the combined use of PCT, bilirubin, NLR, platelets, lactic acid, ESR, and GCS score.

  Photoplethysmography and electrocardiography can potentially enable continuous blood pressure (BP) monitoring. Yet accurate and robust machine learning (ML) models remains challenging due to variability in data quality and patient-specific factors. In this work, we investigate whether a model pre-trained on one modality can effectively be exploited to improve the accuracy of a different signal type. Our approach achieves near state-of-the-art accuracy for diastolic BP and surpasses by 1.5x the accuracy of prior works for systolic BP.
