ABSTRACT: Rationale
Prediction of patients at risk for mortality can help triage patients and assist in resource allocation.Objectives
Develop and evaluate a machine learning-based algorithm which accurately predicts mortality in COVID-19, pneumonia, and mechanically ventilated patients.Methods
Retrospective study of 53,001 total ICU patients, including 9166 patients with pneumonia and 25,895 mechanically ventilated patients, performed on the MIMIC dataset. An additional retrospective analysis was performed on a community hospital dataset containing 114 patients positive for SARS-COV-2 by PCR test. The outcome of interest was in-hospital patient mortality.Results
When trained and tested on the MIMIC dataset, the XGBoost predictor obtained area under the receiver opera
