Problem
Despite recent medical advancements, trauma-related mortality remains a significant problem, and there is a need for a method to quickly and accurately predict mortality for trauma patients visiting an emergency department.
Innovation Solution
A mortality prediction device equipped with processors and memory, which collects patient-related data, generates learning data groups by extracting specific data, and uses machine learning models to predict mortality. The device includes a pretreatment module to exclude data based on preset conditions and a prediction module that evaluates and selects the most accurate machine learning models.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If traditional mortality assessment methods are used for trauma patients, then the process is simple and quick, but the prediction accuracy is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The prediction system is segmented into distinct functional modules: data collection module, pretreatment module, learning data generation module, and prediction module. Each module handles specific tasks independently, allowing the complex prediction system to maintain high accuracy while managing complexity through modular architecture.
Solution Approach 2:
A pretreatment module serves as an intermediary between raw data collection and machine learning prediction. This intermediary layer cleans and prepares data by excluding records with missing critical information, ensuring high-quality input for the prediction model without requiring changes to the underlying complex machine learning architecture.
2Measurement precision
If comprehensive patient data is collected and processed through multiple modules, then prediction accuracy improves, but the time required for processing increases
Solution Approach 1:
The pretreatment module performs preliminary actions by pre-filtering and validating data before it reaches the prediction module. By excluding records with missing critical information in advance, the system prepares data efficiently, reducing processing time during actual prediction while maintaining high accuracy through comprehensive data collection.
3Reliability
If machine learning models are trained on filtered and processed data, then prediction reliability improves, but the complexity of data preparation increases
Solution Approach 1:
The data preparation process is segmented into distinct stages: data collection, pretreatment with exclusion criteria application, and learning data generation. This segmentation allows each stage to focus on specific reliability-enhancing tasks independently, improving overall prediction reliability while managing preparation complexity through structured modular processing.
