Digital Early Warning System for Acute Lung Injury in Liver Surgery

Overview

This study aims to develop an explainable machine learning model that takes into account the characteristics of cardiopulmonary interactions. This model will enable early prediction of acute lung injury (ALI) in patients undergoing major liver surgery. The research will create a digital early-warning system for ALI, thereby supporting clinical diagnosis and treatment decisions. This, in turn, should help reduce the incidence and mortality rates associated with ALI.

This study will leverage parameters to predict ALI in patients undergoing major liver surgery. Specifically, the research will collect data from preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative phases. Machine learning algorithms-including logistic regression, random forest, support vector machines (SVM), and neural networks-will be used to develop and validate the prediction model. Model performance will be evaluated using metrics such as accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The ultimate objective is to develop a highly accurate and interpretable model that can be integrated into a digital early-warning system for clinical application.
