Patent number: 11937932Abstract: An acute kidney injury predicting system and a method thereof are proposed. A processor reads the data to be tested, the detection data, the machine learning algorithm and the risk probability comparison table from a main memory. The processor trains the detection data according to the machine learning algorithm to generate an acute kidney injury prediction model, and inputs the data to be tested into the acute kidney injury prediction model to generate an acute kidney injury characteristic risk probability and a data sequence table. The data sequence table lists the data to be tested in sequence according to a proportion of each of the data to be tested in the acute kidney injury characteristics. The processor selects one of the medical treatment data from the risk probability comparison table according to the acute kidney injury characteristic risk probability.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2022Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignees: TAICHUNG VETERANS GENERAL HOSPITAL, TUNGHAI UNIVERSITYInventors: Chieh-Liang Wu, Chun-Te Huang, Cheng-Hsu Chen, Tsai-Jung Wang, Kai-Chih Pai, Chun-Ming Lai, Min-Shian Wang, Ruey-Kai Sheu, Lun-Chi Chen, Yan-Nan Lin, Chien-Lun Liao, Ta-Chun Hung, Chien-Chung Huang, Chia-Tien Hsu, Shang-Feng Tsai
