However, for successful deployment, the results must be transported across health care facilities. We present a cross-facilities application of an AI model that predicts the need for an emergency caesarean during birth. The transported model showed benefit; however, there can be challenges associated with interfacility variation in reporting practices. %M 34890352 %R 10.2196/28120 %U https://www.jmir.org/2021/12/e28120 %U https://doi.org/10.2196/28120 %U http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/34890352
