Abstract

The goal of this project is to analyze BedMaster streaming data for early cardiac arrest detection in the pediatric cardiac intensive care unit (CICU). Cardiac arrest is a common complication with low survival-to-hospital-discharge rates due to neurodevelopmental issues and other secondary organ damage post the episode. The main challenge is the abruptness of a cardiac arrest episode. In this project, we will develop a computational pipeline starting from high-resolution streaming data acquisition using the BedMaster system, followed by extracting cardiac arrest-related features, and constructing predictive models for early cardiac arrest detection.
