Development and Evaluation of a Machine Learning Recursive Partitioning Decision Tree Algorithm to Optimize Urinalysis Parameters to Predict Urine Culture Positivity

PittUDT, a recursive partitioning decision tree algorithm for predicting urine culture (UC) positivity based on macroscopic and microscopic urinalysis (UA) parameters, may significantly decrease the number of unnecessary UC. The reflex algorithm derivation included 38,361 paired UA and UC cases; the...
