Description

Shanbi Chang and co-authors train machine models to call thirty-day death risk in septic shock. Their 2026 study draws 695 patients from one hospital and feeds age, sex, and thirty-three lab values into the hunt. A shrink step picks the lean set of signals before eleven model kinds compete.

Six lab values survive the cut, led by lactate and platelet count. A random forest model tops the field with a strong score and steady calibration on held-out cases. A web tool turns the model into a bedside risk gauge. One site and no outside check bound the claims, the authors note, so wider trials must come next.
