4/ AI is helping in providing Continuous Cancer Care post Chemotherapy ⏳️
USE-CASE: - Predicting when a patient needs to be hospitalised post Chemotherapy
Often, chemotherapy patients find themselves struggling with side effects such as general pain, fever, diarrhea, fatigue, and vomiting; these are red flags that frequently lead to hospitalizations. According to a study by the National Institutes of Health, “of 18,486 patients who received chemotherapy for metastatic cancer, 92% were hospitalized at least once for any reason, including 51% hospitalized for a likely toxicity.”
 An AI driven tool used by Mercy and called the Chen Chemotherapy model is helping patients steer clear of complications after chemotherapy | The program works by creating a risk score for non-leukemia chemotherapy patients over 18 years old. As the program learns, it’s able to predict how likely it is that a patient who is experiencing symptoms will be hospitalized within 30 days after their chemotherapy treatment. Once patients are opted into the smart texting platform, they will receive a text each day for seven days, minus weekends and holidays, to monitor their symptoms. When a patient selects a symptom, they rate it and, based on their answers, the information may be sent to their provider. |
