Artificial Intelligence-based Activity Recognition and Mortality Prediction Using Circadian Rhythm, Among Cancer Patients in the Hospice Ward

The purpose of this study is to develop a novel deep-learning-based survival prediction model employing patient activity data recorded by a wearable device.

Detailed Description

This study aims to develop a deep-learning-based survival prediction model that utilizes patient movement data upon admission to predict their clinical outcomes: either death or discharge with stable condition. Objective data of the patients are recorded by a wearable device and documented as parameters of physical activity, angle, and spin. In addition to objective data, the investigators also document patients' Karnofsky Performance Status assessed subjectively by clinical doctors. Finally, the investigators aim to explore and describe the applicability, potential, and limitations of the survival prediction model based on patient movement data as a simple prognostic parameter in clinical settings.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Specificity and Sensitivity of using Artificial Intelligence based models for prediction of Clinical Outcomes of End-stage Cancer Patients using actigraphy data
Time Frame: From date of admission to hospice ward until the date of first documented discharge from hospital or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 1 month
The primary outcome of the study will be to evaluate whether the analysis of the movement data captured using actigraphy device can help to predict clinical outcomes either deceased or discharged alive from hospital, with a high specificity and sensitivity, using Artificial Intelligence based prediction modelling.
From date of admission to hospice ward until the date of first documented discharge from hospital or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 1 month
