    The study developed a machine learning model to predict venous thromboembolism (VTE) in lung transplant patients on ECMO.

  • 2

    Data from 189 patients were analyzed using Recursive Feature Elimination to identify six predictive factors for VTE.

  • 3

    The Random Forest model demonstrated the highest performance with an AUC of 0.895 and an accuracy of 89.7%.

  • 4

    The model's predictive ability was validated through decision curve analysis, indicating significant clinical utility.

  • 5

    This research addresses the lack of validated VTE risk prediction tools for lung transplant recipients undergoing ECMO.
