ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Trauma patients admitted to critical care are at high risk of mortality because of their injuries. Our aim was to develop a machine learning-based model to predict mortality using Fahad-Liaqat-Ahmad Intensive Machine (FLAIM) framework. We hypothesized machine learning could be applied to critically ill patients and would outperform currently used mortality scores.METHODS:
The current Deep-FLAIM model evaluates the statistically significant risk factors and then supply these risk factors to deep neural network to predict mortality in trauma patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). We analyzed adult patients (≥18 years) admitted to the trauma ICU in the publicly available database Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III version 1.4. The first phase selection of risk factor was done using Cox-regression univariate and multivariate analyses. In the second phase, we applied deep neural network and other traditional machine learning models like Linear Discriminant Analysis, Gaussian Naïve Bayes, Decision Tree Model, and k-nearest neighbor models.RESULTS:
We identified a total of 3,041 trauma patients admitted to the trauma surgery ICU. We observed that several clinical and laboratory-based variables were statistically significant for both univariate and multivariate analyses while others were not. With most significant being serum anion gap (hazard ratio [HR], 2.46; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.94-3.11), sodium (HR, 2.11; 95% CI, 1.61-2.77), and chloride (HR, 2.11; 95% CI, 1.69-2.64) abnormalities on laboratories, while clinical variables included the diagnosis of sepsis (HR, 2.03; 95% CI, 1.23-3.37), Quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (HR, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.32-3.76). And Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome criteria (HR. 1.41; 95% CI, 1.24-1.26). After we used these clinically significant variables and applied various machine learning models to the data, we found out that our proposed DNN outperformed all the other methods with test set accuracy of 92.25%, sensitivity of 79.13%, and specificity of 94.16%; positive predictive value, 66.42%; negative predictive value, 96.87%; and area under the curve of the receiver-operator curve of 0.91 (1.45-1.29).CONCLUSION:
Our novel Deep-FLAIM model outperformed all other machine learning models. The model is easy to implement, user friendly and with high accuracy. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Prognostic study, level II.
