ICU Admission Prediction for Patients With Kawasaki Disease or MIS-C Using Machine Learning

BACKGROUND: Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) and Kawasaki disease (KD) show a broad spectrum of clinical severity, from a relatively benign clinical course to requiring admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). With either, clinical deterioration may be rapid and unexpected. OBJECTIVES: The aim of the study was to develop a machine learning (ML) model to predict future ICU admission for patients with KD or MIS-C to …
