Description

Motahare Shabestari and coauthors used 2026 hospital records to trace how patients change day by day after open heart surgery. Kidney injury after such surgery is common. It can lengthen stays and harm long-term health, yet fixed risk scores often miss how fast a patient shifts. The team grouped each post-surgery day by lab results and stable traits, searching for repeat patterns in the data.

Among 3,526 patients, 567 developed kidney injury, and five day-to-day states emerged from the grouping. One state looked stable. Another showed a long clotting time, and a third showed small pale red cells. A warning state came just before injury, and a fifth state matched injury taking hold. Patients heading toward injury drifted into the warning state, then the injury state, while others settled toward the stable states. The pattern may help staff watch risk as it moves, rather than from one fixed score.
