Clinical Report: Predictive Machine Learning for In-Hospital Mortality in AMI and COPD

Overview

This study developed a machine learning framework to predict 28-day in-hospital mortality in ICU patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The logistic regression model achieved an AUC of 0.782.

Background

Acute myocardial infarction is a leading cause of mortality, and its prognosis is significantly worsened by comorbidities such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Accurate risk stratification is essential for guiding clinical decisions in this high-risk population. However, validated predictive models for this specific patient group remain limited.

Data Highlights

ModelAUC
Logistic Regression0.782
XGBoost0.739
LightGBM0.761
GBDT0.767
AdaBoost0.764

Key Findings

  • 185 out of 662 patients (27.9%) died within 28 days of hospital admission.
  • The logistic regression model showed an AUC of 0.782.
  • Key predictors included age, heart rate, respiratory rate, lactate dehydrogenase, blood urea nitrogen, sepsis, β-blocker use, and ACEI/ARB use.
  • SHAP analysis was utilized to enhance model interpretability.
  • The model demonstrated good calibration.

Clinical Implications

The logistic regression model can assist clinicians in identifying high-risk patients with AMI and COPD early in their hospital stay. This may facilitate more informed treatment decisions and better resource allocation.

Conclusion

The developed predictive model for in-hospital mortality in patients with AMI and COPD may enhance clinical decision-making and improve patient management in the ICU setting.
