MUST-Plus presentation at the AMIA 2023 Clinical Informatics Conference

The American Medical Informatics Association (AMIA) 2023 Clinical Informatics Conference took place on 05/23 – 05/25. The Clinical Informatics Conference (CIC) is “where clinical informaticists of all disciplines –physicians, nurses, physician assistants, pharmacists, dentists, technicians, health IT developers, data analysts, C-suite executives, and more – share their innovations in bringing the technology advances out of the lab and into the front lines of care delivery.” (https://amia.org/education-events/amia-2023-clinical-informatics-conference)

Mount Sinai Hospital was represented at the conference by Arash Kia, Director of Data Science for the Clinical Data Science department at Mount Sinai, and Melanie Besculides, Assistant Professor for Population Health Science and Policy at the Icahn School of Medicine. They presented a poster on the three phases of the MUST-PLUS evaluation, a ML project that has been running in a clinical setting at Mount Sinai for several years (see MUST-PLUS: A Machine Learning Classifier That Improves Malnutrition Screening in Acute Care Facilities). This was one of the few projects presented that has been running on a real-world environment, highlighting the progress that the Clinical Data Science team has made since its inception.
