Development and performance assessment of novel machine learning models for predicting postoperative pneumonia in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage patients: external validation in MIMIC-IV

BackgroundPostoperative pneumonia (POP) is one of the primary complications after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and is associated with postoperative mortality, extended hospital stay, and increased medical fee. Early identification of pneumonia and more aggressive treatment can improve p...

description BackgroundPostoperative pneumonia (POP) is one of the primary complications after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and is associated with postoperative mortality, extended hospital stay, and increased medical fee. Early identification of pneumonia and more aggressive treatment can improve patient outcomes. We aimed to develop a model to predict POP in aSAH patients using machine learning (ML) methods.MethodsThis internal cohort study included 706 patients with aSAH undergoing intracranial aneurysm embolization or aneurysm clipping. The cohort was randomly split into a train set (80%) and a testing set (20%). Perioperative information was collected from participants to establish 6 machine learning models for predicting POP after surgical treatment. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), precision-recall curve were used to assess the accuracy, discriminative power, and clinical validity of the predictions. The final model was validated using an external validation set of 97 samples from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database.ResultsIn this study, 15.01% of patients in the training set and 12.06% in the testing set with POP after underwent surgery. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that mechanical ventilation time (MVT), Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), Smoking history, albumin level, neutrophil-to-albumin Ratio (NAR), c-reactive protein (CRP)-to-albumin ratio (CAR) were independent predictors of POP. The logistic regression (LR) model presented significantly better predictive performance (AUC: 0.91) than other models and also performed well in the external validation set (AUC: 0.89).ConclusionA machine learning model for predicting POP in aSAH patients was successfully developed using a machine learning algorithm based on six perioperative variables, which could guide high-risk POP patients to take appropriate preventive measures.
