1. Predicting True Sepsis and Culture-positive Sepsis in Intensive Care Unit with Machine Learning Techniques
University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistikAbstract : Sepsis, a serious medical condition often leading to patients requiring intensive care, has prompted numerous scientists to employ mathematical techniques to aid in its diagnosis. This thesis uses logistic regression and a machine learning technique, XGBoost, to predict true sepsis (as opposed to sepsis mimics) and culture-positive sepsis (among true sepsis) in critical care using blood test results, physiological measurements and other patient characteristics.

2. ASSESSING PREDICTION CONDITIONS ANDSEQUENTIAL CLASSIFICATION IN ICU SEPSISPREDICTION
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Statistiska institutionenAbstract : Patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs) often have a higher risk of sepsis due to weakened immune systems. Early sepsis diagnosis is crucial for timely treatment, emphasizing the need to improve the predictive capabilities of sepsis prediction models. READ MORE

3. Evaluation of manual and robotic techniques for Micro-RNA extraction in early sepsis diagnosis
University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskapAbstract : Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by the spread of infectious diseases throughout the body, resulting in a dysfunctional immune system response. It includes a wide range of symptomsa ffecting multiple organs, making accurate diagnosis challenging. READ MORE
