More Details: Abstract Background Respiratory support is crucial for newborns with underdeveloped lung. The clinical outcomes of patients depend on the clinician’s ability to recognize the status underlying the presented symptoms and signs. With the increasing number of high-risk infants, artificial intelligence (AI) should be considered as a tool for personalized neonatal care. Continuous monitoring of vital signs is essential in cardiorespiratory care. In this study, we developed deep learning (DL) prediction models for rapid and accurate detection of mechanical ventilation requirements in neonates using electronic health records (EHR). Methods We utilized data from the neonatal intensive care unit in a single center, collected between March 3, 2012, and March 4, 2022, including 1,394 patient records used for model development, consisting of 505 and 889 patients with and without invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) support, respectively. The proposed model architecture includes feature embedding using feature-wise fully connected (FC) layers, followed by three bidirectional long short-term memory (LSTM) layers. Results A mean gestational age (GA) was 36.61 ± 3.25 weeks, and the mean birth weight was 2,734.01 ± 784.98 g. The IMV group had lower GA, birth weight, and longer hospitalization duration than the non-IMV group (P
