Early prediction of sepsis in intensive care patients using the machine learning algorithm NAVOY® Sepsis, a prospective randomized clinical validation study

J Crit CarePublished Prospective randomised clinical validation study

Authors' conclusion

The accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity were all high, validating the prognostic accuracy of NAVOY® Sepsis in an ICU setting, including Covid-19 patients.
