Researchers Examine Suicide Risk Prediction Algorithm Development
Linda Hummel et al. (JMIR Med Inform, 2026) examine development of a suicide risk prediction algorithm using real-world EHR data through a qualitative case study. The team identifies challenges—missing and underreported suicide events, constructed psychosocial variables, biased questionnaire inputs, noisy unstructured text, and model explainability trade-offs—and recommends governance, documentation culture shifts, bias mitigation, monitoring, and clinician-in-the-loop practices to enable implementation.
Scoring Rationale
Balances peer-reviewed practical insights and clinician-focused recommendations but remains exploratory and not yet implemented, limiting immediate clinical impact.
