This NIH grant project aims to improve patient outcomes by identifying subgroups and care processes that influence differences in outcomes following ICU versus ward triage among patients with acute respiratory failure and sepsis, using electronic health record data.
Description
Decisions to admit patients with acute respiratory failure (ARF) and sepsis to ICUs or wards vary and impact outcomes. Using detailed electronic health record data, the project aims to identify subgroups, care processes, and complications that explain these outcomes, promoting personalized triage and better patient outcomes.
