Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a globally prevalent disease with a complex diagnostic method. Severe OSA is associated with multi-system dysfunction. We aimed to develop an interpretable machine learning (ML) model for predicting the risk of severe OSA and analyzing the risk factors based on clinical characteristics and questionnaires. This was a retrospective study comprising 1656 subjects who ...... hiện toàn bộ
A study of clinical and information management processes in the surgical pre-assessment clinicBMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making - Tập 14 - Trang 1-15 - 2014
Matt-Mouley Bouamrane, Frances S Mair
Establishing day-case surgery as the preferred hospital admission route for all eligible patients requires adequate preoperative assessment of patients in order to quickly distinguish those who will require minimum assessment and are suitable for day-case admission from those who will require more extensive management and will need to be admitted as inpatients. As part of a study to elucidate clin...... hiện toàn bộ
Diagnostic accuracy of administrative data algorithms in the diagnosis of osteoarthritis: a systematic reviewBMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making - Tập 16 - Trang 1-12 - 2016

Administrative health care data are frequently used to study disease burden and treatment outcomes in many conditions including osteoarthritis (OA). OA is a chronic condition with significant disease burden affecting over 27 million adults in the US. There are few studies examining the performance of administrative data algorithms to diagnose OA. The purpose of this study is to perform a systemati...... hiện toàn bộ
An exploratory study of public’ awareness about robotics-assisted surgery in KuwaitBMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making - Tập 20 - Trang 1-7 - 2020
Ali Jasem Buabbas, Saad Aldousari, Abrar Abdulmohsen Shehab
The adoption of robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) requires a clear willingness, not only from healthcare organization to operate the robotic system but also from the public that is going to perceive it. This study aims to explore public’s awareness, understanding and their perceptions towards RAS in Kuwait. This cross-sectional study used a survey questionnaire that was disseminated on a tablet devic...... hiện toàn bộ
The efficacy, safety and cost-effectiveness of hydroxychloroquine, sulfasalazine, methotrexate triple therapy in preventing relapse among patients with rheumatoid arthritis achieving clinical remission or low disease activity: the study protocol of a randomized controlled clinical Trial (ESCoRT study)BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making - Tập 21 - Trang 1-10 - 2021

Tumor necrosis factor α inhibitors (TNFi) is effective for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients who fail to conventional synthetic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (csDMARDs). Because of high cost, the discontinuation is common but often lead to disease relapse. The study aims to investigate, if the combination therapy of csDMARDs is more effective in reducing disease relapse than methotrexate...... hiện toàn bộ
