AI model helps western Sydney emergency departments spot sepsis early
The NSW Government says a new AI prediction model is helping emergency departments in western Sydney recognise sepsis before a patient's condition deteriorates (Sept. 7). A Frontiers study described an interpretable, admission-stage machine learning model for early identification of sepsis in the emergency department.
