Using machine learning models to predict the initiation of renal replacement therapy among chronic kidney disease patients

Abstract: Starting renal replacement therapy (RRT) for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) at an optimal time, either with hemodialysis or kidney transplantation, is crucial for patient's well-being and for successful management of the condition. In this paper, we explore the possibilities of creating forecasting models to predict the onset of RRT 3, 6, and 12 months from the time of the patient's first diagnosis with CKD, using only the comorbidities data from National Health Insurance from Taiwan. The goal of t… Show more

“…The prediction articles focused on which PLWMCCs are at‐risk for death, hospitalizations, exacerbations of illness, disability, frailty, and other poor outcomes. Researchers found success in predicting mortality, hospitalizations, disability/frailty, and illness exacerbations or complications but rarely applied these algorithms to change care or reallocate resources 96,102,103,105–108,110,112,113 . For PLWMCCs, however, adding data beyond conditions was helpful—from personal emergency response to drug‐derived indices to measures of adverse childhood experiences, additional data sources helped increase the accuracy and potential actionability of the metrics 106,111 .…”

“…Finally, as an advanced statistical approach, machine learning is being adopted in clinical CKD research. It has been used in several studies, including used with comorbidity data to predict kidney replacement therapy within 12 months of CKD diagnosis [ 59 ], and creation of biomarker panels using kidney measurements, dyslipidaemia biomarkers, serum sodium, and c-reactive protein to determine progressive CKD [ 60 ].…”

“…Therefore, it can minimize errors, maximize models' performance, and reduce tree construction time. The central idea in XGBoost is to make a new model to correct the errors in the previous training model, then make the prediction [20].…”
