Development and validation of a machine learning-based interpretable model for predicting sepsis by complete blood cell parameters.

ABSTRACT: Sepsis, a severe infectious disease, carries a high mortality rate. Early detection and prompt treatment are crucial for reducing mortality and improving prognosis. The aim of this research is to develop a clinical prediction model using machine learning algorithms, leveraging complete blood cell (CBC) parameters, to detect sepsis at an early stage. The study involved 572 patients admitted to West China Hospital of Sichuan University between July 2020 and September 2021. Among them, 215 were diagnosed with sepsis, while 357 had local infections. Demographic information was collected, and 57 CBC parameters were analyzed to identify potential predictors using techniques such as the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO), Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Machine (SVM), and
