Relevant Information:\N The classification task of this database is to determine where\N patients in a postoperative recovery area should be sent to next. \N Because hypothermia is a significant concern after surgery\N (Woolery, L. et. al. 1991), the attributes correspond roughly to body \N temperature measurements.\N \N Results:\N -- LERS (LEM2): 48% accuracy\N \N 5. Number of Instances: 90\N \N 6. Number of Attributes: 9 including the decision (class attribute)\N \N 7. Attribute Information:\N 1. L-CORE (patient's internal temperature in C):\N high (> 37), mid (>= 36 and <= 37), low (< 36)\N 2. L-SURF (patient's surface temperature in C):\N high (> 36.5), mid (>= 36.5 and <= 35), low (< 35)\N 3. L-O2 (oxygen saturation in %):\N excellent (>= 98), good (>= 90 and < 98),\N fair (>= 80 and < 90), poor (< 80)\N 4. L-BP (last measurement of blood pressure):\N high (> 130/90), mid (<= 130/90 and >= 90/70), low (< 90/70)\N 5. SURF-STBL (stability of patient's surface temperature):\N stable, mod-stable, unstable\N 6. CORE-STBL (stability of patient's core temperature)\N stable, mod-stable, unstable\N 7.
