Prediction of Acute Kidney Injury With a Machine Learning AlgorithmUsing Electronic Health Record Data

摘要

Background:A major problem in treating acute kidney injury (AKI) is that clinical criteria for recognition are markers of established kidney damage or impaired function; treatment before such damage manifests is desirable. Clinicians could intervene during what may be a crucial stage for preventing permanent kidney injury if patients with incipient AKI and those at high risk of developing AKI could be identified.
