Using Sydney Triage to Admission Risk Tool With Artificial Intelligence (START-AI) to Predict Inpatient Admitting Specialty for Emergency Department Patients: Single Centre Deep Learning Analysis
Objective To investigate whether the Sydney Triage to Admission Risk Tool with Artificial Intelligence (START-AI) model could be used to predict specific inpatient admitting teams based on clinical notes. Methods This was a pre-trained language model analysis using electronic medical record data from an inner-city tertiary referral hospital emergency department (ED) in Sydney, Australia. All adult patients who were admitted to an inpatient ward between January 2023 and June 2025 were included. A fine-tuned Bidir…
A fine-tuned clinical language model predicted the correct admitting specialty team from ED case notes with high discrimination in a single Sydney hospital.
The study was conducted at a single centre, and the authors state that further exploration and validation are needed to assess clinical utility and broader feasibility.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1564 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
