Matt Christensen (Michael Ward), Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine

We aim to develop a clinical prediction score to estimate the risk of a MRSA infection among patients diagnosed with Sepsis in the ED.

1) feedback on appropriate population? We can analyze data from all ED encounters, or use data from an existing clinical trial (ACORN) which enrolled patients at VUMC with an order for an anti-pseudomonal antibiotic.

2) How to estimate sample size for building a clinical prediction tool?

3) Which method to use for building clinical prediction score (ehr based that can be augmented by provider input)? - principle component analysis? - sequential component selection? - Others? Mentor confirmed.

Carson Moore (Thomas F. Scherr), Chemistry

I work in the Mobile Health for Global Health group. We are currently working on a project that maps human schistosomiasis infections and environmental factors related to the spread of this disease. We are interested in consulting with the Biostats Core to work on calculating the number of sites needed to sample and number of intermediate host snails needed to collect to provide statistically valid results, and assistance on determining the best methods to randomly sample mapped areas. Mentor confirmed.
