Description
Summary:It is of great significance to establish an assessment model for organ failures in the early stage of admission in acute pancreatitis (AP). And the clinical notes are underutilized. To predict organ failures for AP patients using early clinical notes in hospital, early text features obtained from the pretrained Chinese Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers model and attention-based LSTM were combined with early structured features (laboratory tests, vital signs, and demographic characteristics) to predict organ failures (respiratory, cardiovascular, and renal) in 12,748 AP inpatients in West China Hospital, Sichuan University, from 2008 to 2018. The text plus structured features fusion model was used to predict organ failures, compared to the baseline model with only structured features. The performance of the model with text features added is superior to the model that only includes structured features.
