Predicting Quarantine Failure Rates
Preemptive quarantine through contact-tracing effectively controls emerging infectious diseases. Occasionally this quarantine fails, however, and infected persons are released. The probability of quarantine failure is typically estimated from disease-specific data. Here a simple, exact estimate of the failure rate is derived that does not depend on disease-specific parameters. This estimate is ...
متن کاملPredicting psychiatric admission rates.
OBJECTIVE To determine the numbers of actual and expected psychiatric admissions for the residents of the district health authorities of England and to develop a model to indicate which social, health status, and service provision factors best explain the variation of the actual from the expected psychiatric admissions; to use this model to predict psychiatric admission for district health auth...

متن کاملPredicting extubation failure
Results Out of 680 intubations, 73(11%) patients [46 (63%) male] had failed extubations. Average age was 60(21-88) years. Average time to re-intubation was 22.1(1-72) hours, 45(62%) being re-intubated at≤24 hours. Average time intubated was 2.2 days with 3 patients intubated for >7 days. Fifteen(21%) patients had had no sedation within 4 hours of extubation. All others had one or more of fentan...
متن کاملPredicting Imprecise Failure Rates from Similar Components: A Case Study Using Neural Networks and Gaussian Procedures
Reliability prediction methods for early design stages suffer from the lack of empirical failure data. However, expert knowledge and data from similar in-service components are information sources ready available. In this work, an expert elicitation procedure for failure rate prediction is presented. In contrast to direct elicitation procedures such as FMEA, relations to in-service components a...
