Women in Data Science(WiDS) Datathon 2021
Overview
The WiDS Datathon 2021 focuses on patient health, with an emphasis on the chronic condition of diabetes. Intensive Care Units (ICUs) often lack verified medical histories for incoming patients. A patient in distress or a patient who is brought in confused or unresponsive may not be able to provide information about chronic conditions such as heart disease, injuries, or diabetes. Medical records may take days to transfer, especially for a patient from another medical provider or system.
Objective
The WiDS Datathon 2021 will focus on models to determine whether a patient admitted to an ICU has been diagnosed with a particular type of diabetes, Diabetes Mellitus. Using data from the first 24 hours of intensive care, participants will explore labeled training data for model development.
Data description
