While the MIMIC-IV database allowed for a first run of the study, it

### Other Limitations
|

As Machine learning algorithms become more and more powerful, it is

additionally important from an infrastructure standpoint to have the

processing power capable of handling the algorithms. This becomes even

more important in an attempt to put the algorithm into practice, as the

computer must be able to process results in mere milliseconds.
