A critical care Datathon is an event where multidisciplinary teams and international experts join forces to investigate clinical questions using large datasets of electronic health records.

In addition, they have the chance to expand their knowledge of data, learn new ways to answer clinical questions and create connections!

The fourth edition of the ESICM Critical Care Datathon will happen digitally, between 6 May and 3 June and the three top teams will have a chance to present their work during the Grand Finale and at ESICM’s Annual Congress, LIVES 2022 Paris. Registrations will open on Tuesday, 8 March.

How will it work

16 teams - each consisting of 10-11 members between clinicians, mathematicians and data scientist will be created by the end of April.

At the kick-off webinar, participating teams will be assigned 3 clinical questions. They will have to figure out a way to interrogate the AmsterdamUMCdb database to provide an innovative solution to the problems.

They will have the opportunity to present their work on Friday, 3 June. 

The top 3 teams will be awarded the below prizes:

  • First place: free entrance to LIVES 2022 for all the team members to present their work
  • Second place & Third place: 1 free entrance to LIVES 2022 to represent their work. Additionally, each member will be granted a free seat to a digital Master Class of their choice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Still have questions? See our FAQ below.

The diffusion of electronic health records and advancement of monitoring devices has made possible the collection of always increasing amounts of patients’ data, especially in critical care.

The opportunities arising from this form of Big Data are numerous and diverse and are promoting a surge in research fundings and industry interests. Indeed, their analysis with machine learning and predictive modelling could provide new insights and improve patient care.

To make the experience more productive and satisfying for everybody, we advise subscribers to possess the following skills:

  • if you’re a clinician, some real experience in ICU.
  • if you’re a data scientist, proficiency in R / Python / Matlab or SQL queries, and a background in machine learning, statistical modeling, or data visualisation.

Each team can choose 3 clinical questions among the ones proposed. If approved by the organisers, they can work on their own clinical issue.

Participants will have to figure out a way to interrogate the amsterdamumcdb database to provide an innovative solution to the problems presented during the month of May. Every week, a one hours video meeting will be available for troubleshooting.

By June 3, they will present the results of their work during a grand finale event and hopefully win a free registration to the ESICM LIVES 2022 Congress and/or a digital Master Class of their choice.
