        abstract = {Efficient bed management is crucial for reducing hospital costs and improving patient outcomes. This study proposes a framework to predict ICU length of stay (LOS) at admission using electronic health records (EHR) and supervised machine learning models. It is the first to employ explainable AI (xAI) for interpreting machine learning predictions using real hospital data. The framework predicts short and long ICU stays, evaluated through metrics such as accuracy, AUC, sensitivity, and F1-score. XGBoost achieved a 98% AUC in predicting LOS. This approach enhances clinical information systems, offering hospitals reliable, explainable LOS predictions to optimize ICU resources and support patient care decisions at admission.},
