Machine Learning Predicts ICU Admission Risk
In recent years, multiple peer-reviewed studies (2024–2026) demonstrate machine learning models predicting ICU admission for mild COVID-19 or respiratory failure using early vitals, labs, and history. Models like XGBoost and random forests achieve AUCs up to 0.95 and sensitivities around 87–100%, with predictors including age, comorbidities, LDH, CRP, and D-dimer. External validation, interpretability, and workflow integration remain necessary for safe clinical deployment.
