MySurgeryRisk: Development and Validation of a Machine-learning Risk Algorithm for Major Complications and Death After Surgery

Abstract: We constructed an automated predictive analytics framework for machine-learning algorithm with high discriminatory ability for assessing the risk of surgical complications and death using readily available preoperative electronic health records data. The feasibility of this novel algorithm implemented in real time clinical workflow requires further testing.

“…1) [14]. Left-aligned models predict the onset of sepsis following a fixed point in time, with varying time points such as on admission [15] or preoperatively [16,17]. Right-aligned models continuously predict whether sepsis will occur after a distinct period of time and are also known as real-time or continuous prediction models.…”

“…For some tasks, like predicting mortality among heart failure patients, logistic regression can perform as well or better than certain machine learning methods like regression tree analysis (Austin et al, 2010). For complex tasks like predicting several postoperative complications, artificial intelligence models outperform regression-based techniques and clinician judgement (Bertsimas et al, 2018;Bihorac et al, 2018;Brennan et al, 2019). Bertsimas et al (2018) developed an Optimal Classification Trees machine learning model to predict mortality and 18 complications following emergency surgery, demonstrating superior accuracy compared with the ACS NSQIP calculator (AUROC 0.92 vs. 0.90).…”

“…Manual data entry requires more time and input from providers than an automated model, but obviates requirements for data security and encryption of protected health information from electronic health records (EHR). Bihorac et al (2018) developed and validated the MySurgeryRisk platform with automated EHR data linked to US Census data regarding neighborhood characteristics, using 285 variables to predict eight postoperative complications with AUROC 0.82-0.94 (Bihorac et al, 2018). EHR data feeds the algorithm automatically, obviating manual data search and entry, and overcoming a major obstacle to clinical adoption.…”

“…Preoperative identification of patients with increased surgical risk [3] should be followed by strategies to prevent potential postoperative complications by reducing their incidence and/or severity, and thus minimizing their clinical and economic impact. Therefore, the implementation of effective preventive interventions is an important milestone to achieve due to the current economic context.…”
