Differences in hospital LOS, ICU LOS, and in-hospital mortality between the experimental and control groups
Outcome | Control (n=75) | Experimental (n=67) | Amount of reduction | P value |
Hospital LOS (days) | 13.0 (1.23) | 10.3 (0.912) | 2.30 days | 0.042 |
ICU LOS (days) | 8.40 (0.881) | 6.31 (0.666) | 2.09 days | 0.030 |
In-hospital mortality rate | 21.3% (4.76%) | 8.96% (3.51%) | 12.3% | 0.018 |
The mean and the standard error (in parentheses) for each outcome are noted in the table. All outcomes demonstrate statistically significant reductions when using the machine learning algorithm (p<0.05).
ICU, intensive care unit; LOS, length of stay.
