A Machine Learning Algorithm to Predict the Probability of (Occult) Posterior Malleolar Fractures Associated With Tibial Shaft Fractures to Guide “Malleolus First” Fixation

Abstract: Objectives: To develop an accurate machine learning (ML) predictive model incorporating patient, fracture, and trauma characteristics to identify individual patients at risk of an (occult) PMF. Methods: Databases of 2 studies including patients with TSFs from 2 Level 1 trauma centers were combined for analysis. Using ten-fold cross-validation, 4 supervised ML algorithms were trained in recognizing patterns associated with PMFs: (1) Bayes point machine; … Show more

“…Thus, small significant changes in daily decision-making in high-volume patient care will result in important overall public health advances. 51 , 52 In orthopaedics, ML-derived decision tools to assist clinicians in treatment outcomes have been developed in arthroplasty, 53 trauma, 10 , 12 , 38 oncology and spinal disorders. 54 57 In orthopaedic oncology, decision tools show accurate performance characteristics in pre-operative estimation of survival in patients with spinal or extremity metastatic disease.…”

“… 6 In orthopaedics, our Massachusetts General Hospital-based SORG (Skeletal Oncology Research Group) is on the frontier of ML in orthopaedic musculosketal oncology to provide advanced models for predicting surgical outcomes to improve patient-centred care, 7 and the Traumaplatform ML Consortium is broadening the scope of AI to orthopaedic trauma. 8 – 10 However, critics may argue: ‘Why do so many promising applications have yet to be adopted in patients’ clinical care or doctors’ workflow?’…”

“…For patients with TSFs, the mean incidence of PMFs was 7.3% (0.9–24.3%) based on radiographic findings [ 1 , 11 , 18 20 , 22 ]. Based on a CT scan or MRI, the mean incidence was 25.5% (7.2–47.9%) (Table 1 ) [ 6 , 8 , 14 , 21 24 ]. For patients with spiral TSFs and distal third spiral TSFs, the mean incidences of PMFs were 7.5% and 28%, respectively, based on radiographs [ 1 , 2 , 4 ].…”
