NYU, NVIDIA Collaborate on Large Language Model to Predict Patient Readmission
NVIDIA News, Wednesday, June 7,2023
NYUTron, an AI model featured today in Nature, is deployed at NYU Langone Health.
Getting discharged from the hospital is a major milestone for patients - but sometimes, it's not the end of their road to recovery. Nearly 15% of hospital patients in the U.S. are readmitted within 30 days of their initial discharge, which is often associated with worse outcomes and higher costs for both patients and hospitals.
Researchers at NYU Langone Health, the academic medical center of New York University, have collaborated with NVIDIA experts to develop a large language model (LLM) that predicts a patient's risk of 30-day readmission, as well as other clinical outcomes.
