چکیده
Background: Current tools to assess patient dermatological complexity are labor intensive and not easily applicable on a large scale. Objective: Create an automated algorithm from previously implemented manual tool using electronic health record data. Methods: Dermatology outpatient encounters 1/1/2019 through 4/30/2021 were retrieved refined include top 20 primary associated 10 secondary ICD-10 coded visits. Provider reported stability scores also retrieved. Complexity calculated the following Components: 1) number of diagnoses or treatment options, 2) amount and/or data be reviewed, 3) risk complications, morbidity, mortality. Forty ("Test Cohort”) randomly selected cohort (n=5,863) for scoring (gold-standard) comparison score. Results: McNemar’s symmetry test revealed similar between methods (p=0.906) Test Cohort. There was statistically significant fair agreement when including (weighted kappa= 0.36, 95% CI 0.15-0.57, p<0.001) excluding kappa=0.30, 0.09-0.52, p=0.004) scores. Sensitivity analysis components following: moderate Component 1 kappa = 0.53, 0.37-0.70, p<0.001), 2 0.35, 0.13-0.56, p=0.005), 3 0.47, 0.25-0.69, p<0.001). Conclusion: Compared gold standard, our relatively precise in capturing encounter complexity.

A retrospective analysis of dermatological problems in a hematology ward
BACKGROUND Skin problems are common in patients with hematological disorders. Dermatologists play an important role in providing consultative service to other medical specialties. While most requests for dermatologic consultations are for common skin conditions, challenging scenarios and diagnostic dilemmas are frequently encountered, especially in acutely ill, immunocompromised patients. AIM...
متن کاملA retrospective analysis of dermatological lesions in kidney transplant patients
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES Kidney transplantation is the best option for patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) failure. Prolonged use of immunosuppressive drugs often causes opportunistic infections and malignancies of skin and mucosae, but due to lack of a careful dermatological screening in several transplantation centers the diagnosis and the treatment of dermatological lesions in kidney...
متن کاملAlgorithmic Folding Complexity
How do we most quickly fold a paper strip (modeled as a line) to obtain a desired mountain-valley pattern of equidistant creases (viewed as a binary string)? Define the folding complexity of a mountain-valley string as the minimum number of simple folds required to construct it. We first show that the folding complexity of a length-n uniform string (all mountains or all valleys), and hence of a...
متن کاملAlgorithmic “Kolmogorov” Complexity
The information content or complexity of an object can be measured by the length of its shortest description. For instance the string ‘01010101010101010101010101010101’ has the short description “16 repetitions of 01”, while ‘11001000011000011101111011101100’ presumably has no simpler description other than writing down the string itself. More formally, the Algorithmic “Kolmogorov” Complexity (...
