Testing an ICU time-series model to predict mortality at a major hospital

Official title: Clinical Validation of a Pre-trained and Fine-tuned Model for Analyzing Time-Series Electronic Health Records in Critical Care

Run by Peking University People's Hospital · NCT07795450 · Data updated 2026-11-12

We will see if a pre-trained time-series model can accurately forecast outcomes for ICU patients using real-world data.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults (18+) admitted to the ICU with at least 24 hours stay and complete EHR data.

Probably not a fit

Patients with very short ICU stays, significant data gaps, or outcomes that cannot be determined may not benefit from the model’s predictions.

What this trial studies

This observational study validates how well the Time-Series Electronic Health Record Foundation Model generalizes to and performs in the ICU at Peking University People’s Hospital. The design combines retrospective data and forward-looking data to assess predictive performance for critical-care mortality, including dynamic prognostic outputs. Eligible adults with at least 24 hours in the ICU and complete EHRs are analyzed, with outcomes like 28-day mortality followed up as needed. Data quality and completeness are strictly checked to ensure reliable model inputs and results.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, clinicians may have a real-time prognostic tool to support decision-making in the ICU.

How similar studies have gone: Previous validation efforts of ICU EHR-based models have shown promise, but this study tests generalization in a real-world setting with a validated foundation model.

Who can join: the full rules

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

* Age ≥ 18 years, no gender restriction;
* ICU length of stay ≥ 24 hours (to ensure sufficient time-series monitoring data for model generation);
* Complete electronic health record data, including baseline demographic characteristics and at least one complete laboratory test record after ICU admission.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients who are transferred out or die within 24 hours of ICU admission;
* Duplicate admission records for non-initial ICU admissions (only the initial ICU admission record is retained to ensure independence);
* Severe deficiency in core data (e.g., absence of major vital sign recordings or \> 50% missing key laboratory test results);
* Patients with abandonment of treatment or discharge against medical advice, leading to inability to ascertain the definitive clinical outcome.
