Résumé
Objective
To determine how predictive performance varies across artificial intelligence model architectures for predicting unplanned readmission and mortality in the intensive care unit (ICU), evaluated either as separate or composite outcomes.
Methods
A systematic review was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. Searches were performed in Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, and IEEE Xplore for studies published between 2020 and 2025. Studies reporting predictive performance for both outcomes and providing a clearly described validation strategy were included. Studies involving COVID-19 patients were excluded. Risk of bias was assessed using PROBAST, and meta-analysis was performed using a random-effects model.
