An advanced machine-learning system can accurately predict if a patient’s bout with COVID-19 will become severe or fatal and relay its findings to clinicians.
Clinicians often learn how to recognize patterns in COVID-19 cases after they treat many patients with it. Machine-learning systems promise to enhance that ability, recognizing more complex patterns in large numbers of people with COVID-19 and using that insight to predict the course of an individual patient’s case.
However, physicians sworn to “do no harm” may be reluctant to base treatment and care strategies for their most seriously ill patients on difficult-to-use or hard-to-interpret machine-learning algorithms. The new system offers findings in an easily understandable form.
The prognostic tool, known as the Severe COVID-19 Adaptive Risk...
