Machine-learning for the Electrocardiogram-based Prediction of Short-term and Long-term Mortality at the Time of Discharge in a Population-level Cohort of Patients with Access to Universal Healthcare

FY 2023-24

Summary
We analyzed population-level ECGs in Alberta, Canada, to develop predictive models for short-term and long-term survival after hospital discharge. Our deep learning models utilizing ECG data outperformed traditional methods (CCI) in predicting short-term survival, but the traditional methods (CCI) were more effective in other aspects. Furthermore, our study demonstrates that combining ECG data with CCI can enhance prognostic prediction, offering a more effective approach for planning post-discharge care
