Using electronic health records to develop and validate a machine-learning tool to predict type 2 diabetes outcomes: a study protocol
Introduction Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major cause of blindness, kidney failure, myocardial infarction, stroke and lower limb amputation. We are still unable, however, to accurately predict or identify which patients are at a higher risk of deterioration. Most risk stratification tools do not account for novel factors such as sociodemographic determinants, self-management ability or access to healthcare. Additionally, most tools are based in clinical trials, with limited external generalisability. Objective The aim of this work is to design and validate a machine learning-based tool to identify patients with T2...
