Process-Aware Analysis of Treatment Paths in Heart Failure Patients: A Case Study (2403.10544v1)

Published 11 Mar 2024 in stat.AP and cs.AI

Abstract: Process mining in healthcare presents a range of challenges when working with different types of data within the healthcare domain. There is high diversity considering the variety of data collected from healthcare processes: operational processes given by claims data, a collection of events during surgery, data related to pre-operative and post-operative care, and high-level data collections based on regular ambulant visits with no apparent events. In this case study, a data set from the last category is analyzed. We apply process-mining techniques on sparse patient heart failure data and investigate whether an information gain towards several research questions is achievable. Here, available data are transformed into an event log format, and process discovery and conformance checking are applied. Additionally, patients are split into different cohorts based on comorbidities, such as diabetes and chronic kidney disease, and multiple statistics are compared between the cohorts. Conclusively, we apply decision mining to determine whether a patient will have a cardiovascular outcome and whether a patient will die.
