MEDICAL MACHINE LEARNING SYSTEM AND METHOD

Abstract:

Methods and systems for providing renal-related clinical decision support are disclosed. In an example, a medical treatment system includes a plurality of medical machines located at each of a plurality of hospitals. At least one medical machine of each hospital generates machine output data. The medical treatment system also includes a plurality of sources of data external to the medical machines and a logic engine implemented on a computer. The logic engine is configured to obtain a module formed via data from the plurality of sources and from the machine output data. The module quantifies a risk assessment for an adverse health condition of a patient undergoing treatment by one of the medical machines. The logic engine is also configured to compare an outcome from the module to a clinical setpoint for the adverse health condition, and provide a notification based on the comparison.
