Electronic Health Records to Predict Gestational Diabetes Risk

Gestational diabetes mellitus is a common pregnancy complication associated with significant adverse health outcomes for both women and infants. Effective screening and early prediction tools as part of routine clinical care are needed to reduce the impact of the disease on the baby and mother. Usin...

Description
Summary:Gestational diabetes mellitus is a common pregnancy complication associated with significant adverse health outcomes for both women and infants. Effective screening and early prediction tools as part of routine clinical care are needed to reduce the impact of the disease on the baby and mother. Using large-scale electronic health records, Artzi and colleagues developed and evaluated a machine learning driven tool to identify women at high and low risk of GDM. Their findings showcase how artificial intelligence approaches can potentially be embedded in clinical care to enable accurate and rapid risk stratification.
