Analysis of heart failure patient trajectories using sequence modeling

arXiv — cs.LGMonday, November 24, 2025 at 5:00:00 AM
  • A recent study analyzed heart failure patient trajectories using sequence modeling, focusing on the performance of six sequence models, including Transformers and the newly introduced Mamba architecture, within a large Swedish cohort of 42,820 patients. The models were evaluated on their ability to predict clinical instability and other outcomes based on electronic health records (EHRs).
  • This development is significant as it highlights the potential of advanced machine learning architectures to improve clinical predictions in heart failure management, which could lead to better patient outcomes and more efficient healthcare delivery.
  • The findings contribute to ongoing discussions about the efficacy of various AI models in healthcare, particularly the balance between model complexity and interpretability, as well as the need for systematic evaluations to ensure these technologies can be effectively integrated into clinical practice.
