Abstract:
|
Identifying individuals at greater risk of COVID-19 infection and severe illness is crucial for prioritizing diagnostic testing, providing best care, and managing healthcare resources. In this talk, we present statistical methods to construct patient-level predictive model and identify patients at high risk of severe progression using electronic health records (EHRs). We first propose a spatial-temporal model to examine the socioeconomic heterogeneity and spatial correlation of COVID-19 transmission at the community level from reported daily new cases. From the model, we extract latent infection density as a measure of community-level risk factor. Next, we assess the individual risk of severe COVID-19 outcomes after a positive diagnosis by a varying-coefficient model that integrates individual-level risk factors from EHRs with community-level risk factors. We analyze COVID transmission data in New York City (NYC) and EHRs from NYC hospitals, where time-varying effects of community risk factors and significant interactions between individual- and community-level risk factors are detected.
