Machine Learning Modeling of Intraoperative Hemodynamic Predictors of Postoperative Outcomes
Machine Learning Modeling of Intraoperative Hemodynamic Predictors of 30-day Mortality and Major In-hospital Morbidity After Noncardiac Surgery: a Retrospective Population Cohort Study
Study Overview
Status
Detailed Description
Lay Summary
Introduction: The World Health Organization estimates that 270-360 million operations are performed every year worldwide. Death and complications after surgery are a big challenge. In Canada, out of every 1000 major surgeries, 16 patients die in hospital after surgery. In the United States, for every 1000 operations, 67 patients unexpectedly need life support in the Intensive Care Unit. With population aging and limited resources, strategies to improve health after surgery are ever more important.
Vital signs, such as blood pressure and heart rate, show how the body is doing. Vital signs change during surgery because of patient, surgical, and anesthetic factors. Anesthesiologists can change vital signs with medications. However, medical professionals are only starting to understand which, and what ranges of, vital signs under anesthesia are associated with better health. Machine learning is a tool that can provide new ways to understand data. With better understanding, medical professionals can work to improve outcomes after surgery.
Objective: This study will analyze vital signs during surgeries for their links to death, complications (heart, lung, kidney, brain, infection), Intensive Care Unit admission, length of hospital stay, and hospital readmission. This study will determine which, and what levels of, vital signs may be harmful. The investigators predict that blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen level, carbon dioxide level, and the need for medications to change blood pressure will interact to be associated with death after surgery.
Methods: After obtaining Research Ethics Board approval, the investigators will analyze data from all patients who are at least 45 years old and had an operation (with the exception of heart surgery) with an overnight stay at the Queen Elizabeth II health centre (Halifax, Canada) from January 1, 2013 to December 1, 2017. There are approximately eligible 35,000 patients. The investigators will use machine learning to model the data and test how well our model explains outcomes after surgery.
Significance: The use of machine learning in a large, broad surgery population dataset could detect new relationships and strategies that may inform current practice, and generate ideas for future research. A better understanding of the impact of vital signs during surgeries may unveil methods to improve outcomes and resource allocation after surgery. The results may suggest ways to identify high-risk patients who should be monitored more closely after surgery. If the model performs well, it may motivate other researchers to use machine learning in health data research.

Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- All patients ages ≥ 45 receiving their index (i.e. first) non-cardiac surgery with an overnight stay at the Nova Scotia Health Authority Queen Elizabeth II (QEII) hospitals (Victoria General and Halifax Infirmary) Halifax, Canada, from January 1, 2013 to December 1, 2017.
- For patients who had multiple surgeries, only the first non-cardiac surgery with an overnight stay at QEII will be included to avoid confounding from previous surgical admissions (i.e. one surgical admission per patient).
Exclusion Criteria:
- No intraoperative anesthetic records
- Cardiac surgery patients
- Deceased organ donation

Cohort
Patients ages ≥ 45 receiving their index (i.e.
first) non-cardiac surgery with an overnight stay at the Nova Scotia Health Authority Queen Elizabeth II (QEII) hospitals (Victoria General and Halifax Infirmary) Halifax, Canada, from January 1, 2013 to December 1, 2017 will be included.
Patients under going cardiac surgery or deceased organ donation will be excluded.
Patients without an electronic anesthetic record during surgery will also be excluded.
Preliminary analysis of the intraoperative database estimates approximately 35,000 patients in this cohort.
