Abstract

See full text

A screening tool for deciding whether to refer patients to a specialist who provides a particular medical therapy is created as a model that is trained, validated, and then applied to subject patients. The training of the model utilizes a training set of answers to the set of questions and a specialist conclusion about referral for the patients who provided the training set of answers in order to drive the model to an ideal sensitivity and an ideal specificity. The model is then validated using a validation set of answers and a specialist conclusion about referral for the patients who provided the validation set of answers to produce a resulting sensitivity and specificity. Once the resulting sensitivity and specificity achieve a target, the model is validated and is then used in practice for subject patients.
