Predictive algoRithm for EValuation and Intervention in SEpsis
Overview
In this prospective study, the ability of a machine learning algorithm to predict sepsis and influence clinical outcomes, will be investigated at Cabell Huntington Hospital (CHH).
Full Title of Study: “Prediction of Severe Sepsis Using a Machine Learning Algorithm”
Study Type
- Study Type: Interventional
- Study Design
- Allocation: Non-Randomized
- Intervention Model: Factorial Assignment
- Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
- Masking: None (Open Label)
- Study Primary Completion Date: August 30, 2017
Interventions
- Other: Severe Sepsis Prediction
- Upon receiving an InSight alert, healthcare provider follows standard practices in assessing possible (severe) sepsis and intervening accordingly.
- Other: Severe Sepsis Detection
- Upon receiving information from the severe sepsis detector in the CHH electronic health record, healthcare provider follows standard practices in assessing possible (severe) sepsis and intervening accordingly.
Arms, Groups and Cohorts
- Experimental: With InSight
- Healthcare provider receives an alert from InSight for patients trending towards severe sepsis. Healthcare provider also receives information from the severe sepsis detector in the CHH electronic health record.
- Active Comparator: Without Insight
- Healthcare provider does not receive any alerts from InSight. Healthcare provider receives information from the severe sepsis detector in the CHH electronic health record.
