Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Using our own patient data, our study aimed to predict mortality that can develop in Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacilli bloodstream infections with a machine learning-based model.

In the intensive care unit, patients with bloodstream infections, both with and without mortality, will be examined retrospectively in two subgroups for comparison.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Carbapenems are one of the last-resort antibiotics used to treat severe infections caused by multi-drug resistant Gram-negative pathogens. Infections with Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacilli (CR-GNB) have become widespread in the past decade, posing serious threats to public health. Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE), Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB), and Carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CRPA) top the priority list of antibiotic-resistant bacteria worldwide. CR-GNB causes a broad spectrum of infections, including bacteremia, urinary tract infections, pneumonia, and intra-abdominal infections. Carbapenem-resistant bloodstream infections are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality, and therapeutic options in treatment are extremely limited. By evaluating risk factors in patients monitored in the intensive care unit, scoring systems that can predict prognosis reduce mortality risk by ensuring the early application of effective antibiotics and timely hemodynamic support that are currently in use.

With the accumulation of big data and advancements in data storage techniques, innovative and pragmatic machine learning methods that have entered our lives demonstrate good prediction performance in the medical field. Machine learning-based models developed to predict mortality in patients monitored in the intensive care unit are available in the literature and provide an opportunity for earlier intervention in patients.

Using our own patient data, In the intensive care unit, patients with bloodstream infections, both with and without mortality, will be examined retrospectively in two subgroups for comparison. The investigators aim to predict mortality that can develop in Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacilli bloodstream infections with a machine learning-based model.
