Prediction of symptomatic and asymptomatic bacteriuria in spinal cord injury patients using machine learning

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Individuals with spinal cord injuries (SCI) frequently rely on urinary catheters to drain urine from the bladder, making them susceptible to asymptomatic and symptomatic catheter-associated bacteriuria and urinary tract infections (UTI). Proper identification of these conditions lacks precision, leading to inappropriate antibiotic use which promotes selection for drug-resistant bacteria. Since...
