Abstract:

 

The interpretation of high volumes of noisy computerized physiological data generated by the monitors of an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is complex. To ease the information overload on medical staff we propose a time series analysis technique called data wavelets to derive trends in the data – this will facilitate Clinical Decision Support in the form of qualitative reasoning for patient state assessment. Our approach has been successfully applied to cardiovascular data from a neonatal ICU.
