• Authors: Zaina Abu Hweij, Florence Liang, Sophie Zhang
• Abstract summary: Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) is an orthopedic emergency, caused by elevated pressure within a muscle compartment. This study proposes an objective and noninvasive diagnostic for ACS. The device detects ACS through a random forest machine learning model that uses surrogate pressure readings from force-sensitive resistors (FSRs) placed on the skin.

• Abstract: Acute compartment syndrome (ACS) is an orthopedic emergency, caused by elevated pressure within a muscle compartment, that leads to permanent tissue damage and eventually death. Diagnosis of ACS relies heavily on patient-reported symptoms, a method that is clinically unreliable and often supplemented with invasive intracompartmental pressure measurements that can malfunction in motion settings. This study proposes an objective and noninvasive diagnostic for ACS. The device detects ACS through a random forest machine learning model that uses surrogate pressure readings from force-sensitive resistors (FSRs) placed on the skin. To validate the diagnostic, a data set containing FSR measurements and the corresponding simulated intracompartmental pressure was created for motion and motionless scenarios. The diagnostic achieved up to 98% accuracy. The device excelled in key performance metrics, including sensitivity and specificity, with a statistically insignificant performance difference in motion present cases. Manufactured for 73 USD, our device may be a cost-effective solution. These results demonstrate the potential of noninvasive ACS diagnostics to meet clinical accuracy standards in real world settings.

  We propose a novel fully unsupervised approach to detect artifacts in minute-by-minute resolution ICU data without prior labeling or signal-specific knowledge. Our approach combines a variational autoencoder (VAE) and an isolation forest (IF) into a hybrid model to learn features and identify anomalies. We show that our unsupervised approach achieves comparable sensitivity to fully supervised methods and generalizes well to an external dataset.
