Machine Learning Models with Preoperative Risk Factors and Intraoperative Hypotension Parameters Predict Mortality After Cardiac Surgery

Objectives

Machine learning models used to predict postoperative mortality rarely include intraoperative factors. Several intraoperative factors like hypotension (IOH), vasopressor-inotropes, and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time are significantly associated with postoperative outcomes. The authors explored the ability of machine learning models incorporating intraoperative risk factors to predict mortality after cardiac surgery.

Measurements and Main Results

The intraoperative phase was divided into the following: (1) CPB, (2) outside CPB, and (3) total surgery for quantifying IOH only. Phase-specific IOH parameters (area under the curve for mean arterial pressure <65 mmHg), vasopressor-inotropes (norepinephrine equivalents), duration, and cross-clamp time, along with preoperative risk factors ,were incorporated into the models. The primary outcome was mortality. The following 5 models were applied to 3 intraoperative phases separately: (1) logistic regression, (2) random forests, (3) neural networks, (4) support vector machines, and (5) extreme gradient boosting (XGB). Mortality was predicted using area under the receiver operating characteristic curve. Of 5,015 patients included, 112 (2.2%) died. XGB model from the outside-CPB phase predicted mortality better with area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.88(0.83-0.94); positive predictive value, 0.10(0.06-0.15); specificity 0.85 (0.83-0.87) and sensitivity 0.75 (0.57-0.90).

Conclusion

XGB machine learning model from IOH outside the CPB phase seemed to offer a better discrimination, sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value compared with other models. Machine learning models incorporating intraoperative adverse factors might offer better predictive ability for risk stratification and triaging of patients after cardiac surgery.
