| Summary: | Abstract The advancement of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has revolutionized data acquisition and processing in critical care settings. Given the pivotal role of ventilators, accurately predicting extubation outcomes is essential to optimize patient care. This study presents an edge computing-based framework that incorporates machine learning algorithms to predict ventilator extubation success using real-time data collected directly from ventilators. The system was deployed on edge devices to enable on-site inference with minimal latency. Among the evaluated models, Random Forest and XGBoost, the latter demonstrated superior predictive performance under both holdout and tenfold cross-validation schemes. Notably, the edge-based architecture reduced server data transmissions by 83.33%, while improving system stability, resilience, and sustainability. This paper details the model evaluation and demonstrates the feasibility and efficiency of edge intelligence in ventilator weaning decision support. |
