Patient mobility during hospitalization is essential for high-quality healthcare as mobility is linked to physical function and quality of life. The Johns Hopkins Highest Level of Mobility (JH-HLM) scale is a validated method to assess mobility in hospitalized patients. Although the JH-HLM is widely utilized, it has limitations including ceiling effects, unobserved mobility events going unrecorded, and the staff time needed to observe and document.We explored the feasibility of using [...]

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the third leading cause of death worldwide, with up to 70% of cases remaining undiagnosed. This paper proposes a COPD screening tool based on time-frequency representation features of self-recorded respiratory sounds.

School violence risk prevention in the United States relies on manual assessments that are time-consuming and subjective. We developed a machine learning algorithm named Automated RIsk Assessment (ARIA), using natural language processing (NLP) to find linguistic patterns in standardized interview questions that can predict risk of aggression. Our goal was to evaluate the incremental change in performance with the addition of each question to simulate situations where interviews cannot be [...]

Measurement-based care (MBC) improves clinical decision-making but remains underutilized in the Veterans Health Administration due to barriers such as provider awareness, time constraints, and user-experience limitations. This study describes the development of the War Related Illness and Injury Study Center Veteran Dashboard (VetDash), a patient-level clinical dashboard designed to integrate the VA's Collect, Share, Act model into the provider workflow.

To evaluate clinical decision support (CDS) of varying complexities and care settings represented using Health Information Technology (HIT) standards-Clinical Quality Language (CQL) for representing clinical logic and Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) for health information exchange.

Our objective was to determine how social vulnerabilities, broadband access, and rurality relate to telemedicine use across the United States through large-scale analysis of real-world telemedicine data.

To compare different machine learning models of loss to follow-up among people with HIV (PWH).

To investigate clinicians' attitudes towards current automated interpretation of ECG and novel AI technologies and their perception of computer-assisted interpretation.

To assess the calibration of 9 large language models (LLMs) within biomedical natural language processing (BioNLP) tasks, furthering understanding of trustworthiness and reliability in real-world settings.

We aim to leverage more comprehensive phenotypic and genotypic clinical data to enhance the treatment response predictions.
