Stroke prediction with Machine Learning ...

Stroke is among the most common and dangerous misdiagnosed medical conditions, and timely detection is key to effective management. Patients who are treated within an hour of the onset of symptoms have a greater chance of surviving and avoiding long-term brain damage. Data indicates that Blacks, Hispanics, women, older adults on Medicare and residents of rural areas are less likely to be diagnosed during this crucial window. Currently used pre-hospital stroke scales miss approximately 30 percent of cases.
