ELECTRONIC CLINICAL DECISION SUPPORT DEVICE BASED ON HOSPITAL DEMOGRAPHICS

摘要

An electronic clinical decision support (CDS) device (10) employs a trained CDS algorithm (30) that operates on values of a set of covariates to output a prediction of a medical condition. The CDS algorithm was trained on a training data set (22). The CDS device includes a computer (12) that is programmed to provide a user interface (62) for completing clinical survey questions using the display and the one or more user input devices. Marginal probability distributions (42) for the covariates of the set of covariates are generated from the completed clinical survey questions. The trained CDS algorithm is adjusted for covariate shift using the marginal probability distributions. A prediction of the medical condition is generated for a medical subject using the trained CDS algorithm adjusted for covariate shift (50) operating on values for the medical subject of the covariates of the set of covariates.
