Population stratification for prediction of mortality in post-AKI patients

Flavio S. Correa da Silva, Simon Sawhney

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a serious clinical condition that affects up to 20% of hospitalised patients. AKI is associated with short term unplanned hospital readmission and post-discharge mortality risk. Patient risk and healthcare expenditures can be minimised by followup planning grounded on predictive models and machine learning. Since AKI is multi-factorial, predictive models specialised in different categories of patients can increase accuracy of predictions. In the present article we present some results following this approach.
