Description

Xiaoyan Gong and co-authors build models to predict which family stand-ins for ICU patients will feel deep regret six months on, in a study from two thousand twenty-six. Three hundred thirty-six stand-ins at one Chinese hospital supplied trait and mood data near discharge. Regret was scored half a year later.

Near half landed in the high-regret group. A plain regression model beat three learning rivals on fresh cases. Five traits drove the final tool: web health skill, trust in doctors, income, anxiety, and low mood. Trust and mood strain weighed most in the break-downs. The authors pitch early flags for support and counsel. Readers get a regret radar for care's hidden second patients.
