Subphenotypes of Cardiac Arrest Patients Admitted to Intensive Care Unit: a latent profile analysis of a large critical care database

Abstract: Cardiac arrest (CA) may occur due to a variety of causes with heterogeneity in their clinical presentation and outcomes. This study aimed to identify clinical patterns or subphenotypes of CA patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). The clinical and laboratory data of CA patients in a large electronic healthcare database were analyzed by latent profile analysis (LPA) to identify whether subphenotypes existed. Multivariable Logistic regression was used to assess whether mortality outcome was different… Show more

“…In the current study, three distinct profiles of critically ill patients with CS after AMI were determined by using 33 clinical variables obtained from electronic health record (EHR) and the LPA, a kind of unsupervised machine learning technique. The main difference between LPA and other clustering algorithms (such as latent variable mixture modeling, K-means clustering, and LCA) is that LPA uses a “model-based clustering” method to derive clusters from a probabilistic model of the data’s distribution ( 28 , 35 37 ). Therefore, LPA fits a model that describes the distribution of the data, and you evaluate probabilities of particular patients being members of particular latent profiles based on this model rather than searching for clusters with some arbitrarily chosen distance measure.…”

“…Latent profile analysis (LPA), an unsupervised machine learning algorithm, is a modeling approach for classifying latent variables that focuses on identifying potential subgroups within a population, based on a specific set of variables, using an expectation–maximization algorithm to estimate the parameters of the latent class model ( 18 ). The variables included in LPA modeling are clinical and are incorporated from domain expertise and from the relevant literature ( 16 , 19 , 20 ). Pearson’s correlation analysis was used to determine the correlations among characteristic variables, and variables with correlation coefficients >0.7 were removed.…”

“…Similarly, CA patients in the ICU also exhibit significant heterogeneity [ 19 , 20 ], and subphenotypes exploration may help to identify patients who might benefit most from certain therapeutics. Our previous work has identified subphenotypes of CA using cross-sectional data on the first day of ICU entry [ 21 ]. However, it is largely unknown whether the subphenotypes are stable or subject to transitions and how could this transition inform clinical decisions.…”
