Abstract
Background: Heart failure poses a significant challenge in the global health domain, and accurate prediction of mortality is crucial for devising effective treatment plans. In this study, we employed a Seq2Seq model from deep learning, integrating 12 patient features. By finely modeling continuous medical records, we successfully enhanced the accuracy of mortality prediction.
Objective: The objective of this research was to leverage the Seq2Seq model in conjunction with patient features for precise mortality prediction in heart failure cases, surpassing the performance of traditional machine learning methods.
Methods: The study utilized a Seq2Seq model in deep learning, incorporating 12 patient features, to intricately model continuous medical records. The experimental design aimed to compare the performance of Seq2Seq with traditional machine learning methods in predicting mortality rates.
Results: The experimental results demonstrated that the Seq2Seq model outperformed conventional machine learning methods in terms of predictive accuracy. Feature importance analysis provided critical patient risk factors, offering robust support for formulating personalized treatment plans.
Conclusions: This research sheds light on the significant applications of deep learning, specifically the Seq2Seq model, in enhancing the precision of mortality prediction in heart failure cases. The findings present a valuable direction for the application of deep learning in the medical field and provide crucial insights for future research and clinical practices.
期刊介绍:
Technology and Health Care is intended to serve as a forum for the presentation of original articles and technical notes, observing rigorous scientific standards. Furthermore, upon invitation, reviews, tutorials, discussion papers and minisymposia are featured. The main focus of THC is related to the overlapping areas of engineering and medicine. The following types of contributions are considered:
1.Original articles: New concepts, procedures and devices associated with the use of technology in medical research and clinical practice are presented to a readership with a widespread background in engineering and/or medicine. In particular, the clinical benefit deriving from the application of engineering methods and devices in clinical medicine should be demonstrated. Typically, full length original contributions have a length of 4000 words, thereby taking duly into account figures and tables.
2.Technical Notes and Short Communications: Technical Notes relate to novel technical developments with relevance for clinical medicine. In Short Communications, clinical applications are shortly described. 3.Both Technical Notes and Short Communications typically have a length of 1500 words.
Reviews and Tutorials (upon invitation only): Tutorial and educational articles for persons with a primarily medical background on principles of engineering with particular significance for biomedical applications and vice versa are presented. The Editorial Board is responsible for the selection of topics.
4.Minisymposia (upon invitation only): Under the leadership of a Special Editor, controversial or important issues relating to health care are highlighted and discussed by various authors.
5.Letters to the Editors: Discussions or short statements (not indexed).
