Using Artificial Neural Networks to Predict Intra-Abdominal Abscess Risk Post-Appendectomy

Using Artificial Neural Networks to Predict Intra-Abdominal Abscess Risk Post-Appendectomy

Objective:. To determine if artificial neural networks (ANN) could predict the risk of intra-abdominal abscess (IAA) development post-appendectomy. Background:. IAA formation occurs in 13.6% to 14.6% of appendicitis cases with “complicated” appendicitis as the most common cause of IAA. There remains...
