To test the hypothesis that accuracy, discrimination, and precision in predicting postoperative complications improve when using both preoperative and intraoperative data input features versus preoperative data alone. Models that predict postoperative complications often ignore important intraoperative physiological changes. Incorporation of intraoperative physiological data may improve model performance. This retrospective cohort analysis included 52,529 inpatient surgeries at a single institution during a 5 year period. Random forest machine learning models in the validated MySurgeryRisk platform made patient-level predictions for three postoperative complications and mortality during hospital admission using electronic health record data and patient neighborhood characteristics. For each outcome, one model trained with preoperative data alone and one model trained with both preoperative and intraoperative data. Models were compared by accuracy, discrimination (expressed as AUROC), precision (expressed as AUPRC), and reclassification indices (NRI). Machine learning models incorporating both preoperative and intraoperative data had greater accuracy, discrimination, and precision than models using preoperative data alone for predicting all three postoperative complications (intensive care unit length of stay >48 hours, mechanical ventilation >48 hours, and neurological complications including delirium) and in-hospital mortality (accuracy: 88% vs. 77%, AUROC: 0.93 vs. 0.87, AUPRC: 0.21 vs. 0.15). Overall reclassification improvement was 2.9-10.0% for complications and 11.2% for in-hospital mortality. Incorporating both preoperative and intraoperative data significantly increased accuracy, discrimination, and precision for machine learning models predicting postoperative complications.

Accurate prediction of postoperative complications can inform shared decisions between patients and surgeons regarding the appropriateness of surgery, preoperative risk-reduction strategies, and postoperative resource use. Traditional predictive analytic tools are hindered by suboptimal performance and usability. We hypothesized that novel deep learning techniques would outperform logistic regression models in predicting postoperative complications. In a single-center longitudinal cohort of 43,943 adult patients undergoing 52,529 major inpatient surgeries, deep learning yielded greater discrimination than logistic regression for all nine complications. Predictive performance was strongest when leveraging the full spectrum of preoperative and intraoperative physiologic time-series electronic health record data. A single multi-task deep learning model yielded greater performance than separate models trained on individual complications. Integrated gradients interpretability mechanisms demonstrated the substantial importance of missing data. Interpretable, multi-task deep neural networks made accurate, patient-level predictions that harbor the potential to augment surgical decision-making.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and serious complication after a surgery which is associated with morbidity and mortality. The majority of existing perioperative AKI risk score prediction models are limited in their generalizability and do not fully utilize the physiological intraoperative time-series data. Thus, there is a need for intelligent, accurate, and robust systems, able to leverage information from large-scale data to predict patients risk of developing postoperative AKI. A retrospective single-center cohort of 2,911 adult patients who underwent surgery at the University of Florida Health has been used for this study. We used machine learning and statistical analysis techniques to develop perioperative models to predict the risk of AKI (risk during the first 3 days, 7 days, and until the discharge day) before and after the surgery. In particular, we examined the improvement in risk prediction by incorporating three intraoperative physiologic time series data, i.e., mean arterial blood pressure, minimum alveolar concentration, and heart rate. For an individual patient, the preoperative model produces a probabilistic AKI risk score, which will be enriched by integrating intraoperative statistical features through a machine learning stacking approach inside a random forest classifier. We compared the performance of our model based on the area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (AUROC), accuracy and net reclassification improvement (NRI). The predictive performance of the proposed model is better than the preoperative data only model. For AKI-7day outcome: The AUC was 0.86 (accuracy was 0.78) in the proposed model, while the preoperative AUC was 0.84 (accuracy 0.76). Furthermore, with the integration of intraoperative features, we were able to classify patients who were misclassified in the preoperative model.
Coordinated photovoltaic inverter control with centralized coordination of curtailment can increase the amount of energy sent from low-voltage (LV) distribution networks to the grid while respecting voltage constraints. First, this paper quantifies the improvement of such an approach relative to autonomous droop control, in terms of PV curtailment and line losses in balanced networks. It then extends the coordinated inverter control to unbalanced distribution networks. Finally, it formulates a control algorithm for different objectives such as the fairer distribution of PV curtailment and rewarding PV customers for utilizing the excess power locally. The coordinated inverter control algorithm is tested on the 114-node and 906-bus LV European test feeders with cable sizes between 50mm^2 and 240mm^2 and validated with reference to OpenDSS. The results demonstrate that coordinated inverter control is superior when applied to high impedance LV networks and LV networks constrained by the distribution transformer capacity limits compared to autonomous inverters. On the 95mm^2 overhead line, it yields a 2% increase on average in the utilized PV output with up to 5% increase for some PV locations at higher penetration levels. Up to a 20% increase in PV hosting capacity was observed for location scenarios with PV system clustering.
Hospital readmission rate is high for heart failure patients. Early detection of deterioration will help doctors prevent readmissions, thus reducing health care cost and providing patients with just-in-time intervention. Wearable devices (e.g., wristbands and smart watches) provide a convenient technology for continuous outpatient monitoring. In the paper, we explore the feasibility of monitoring outpatients using Fitbit Charge HR wristbands and the potential of machine learning models to predicting clinical deterioration (readmissions and death) among outpatients discharged from the hospital. We developed and piloted a data collection system in a clinical study which involved 25 heart failure patients recently discharged from a hospital. The results from the clinical study demonstrated the feasibility of continuously monitoring outpatients using wristbands. We observed high levels of patient compliance in wearing the wristbands regularly and satisfactory yield, latency and reliability of data collection from the wristbands to a cloud-based database. Finally, we explored a set of machine learning models to predict deterioration based on the Fitbit data. Through 5-fold cross validation, K nearest neighbor achieved the highest accuracy of 0.8800 for identifying patients at risk of deterioration using the health data from the beginning of the monitoring. Machine learning models based on multimodal data (step, sleep and heart rate) significantly outperformed the traditional clinical approach based on LACE index. Moreover, our proposed weighted samples one class SVM model can reach high accuracy (0.9635) for predicting the deterioration happening in the future using data collected by a sliding window, which indicates the potential for allowing timely intervention.
We present an end-to-end model using streaming physiological time series to accurately predict near-term risk for hypoxemia, a rare, but life-threatening condition known to cause serious patient harm during surgery. Our proposed model makes inference on both hypoxemia outcomes and future input sequences, enabled by a joint sequence autoencoder that simultaneously optimizes a discriminative decoder for label prediction, and two auxiliary decoders trained for data reconstruction and forecast, which seamlessly learns future-indicative latent representation. All decoders share a memory-based encoder that helps capture the global dynamics of patient data. In a large surgical cohort of 73,536 surgeries at a major academic medical center, our model outperforms all baselines and gives a large performance gain over the state-of-the-art hypoxemia prediction system. With a high sensitivity cutoff at 80%, it presents 99.36% precision in predicting hypoxemia and 86.81% precision in predicting the much more severe and rare hypoxemic condition, persistent hypoxemia. With exceptionally low rate of false alarms, our proposed model is promising in improving clinical decision making and easing burden on the health system.
