A Machine Learning Model for Predicting Hospitalization in Patients with Respiratory Symptoms during the COVID-19 Pandemic

Abstract: A machine learning approach is a useful tool for risk-stratifying patients with respiratory symptoms during the COVID-19 pandemic, as it is still evolving. We aimed to verify the predictive capacity of a gradient boosting decision trees (XGboost) algorithm to select the most important predictors including clinical and demographic parameters in patients who sought medical support due to respiratory signs and symptoms (RAPID RISK COVID-19). A total of 7336 patients were enrolled in the study, including 6596 pati… Show more

“…The conclusion of this study was that elevated cardiac injury biomarkers may improve the identification of patients with high risk of mortality and severity. In de Freitas et al (55)' , the main symptoms, signs and demographic data that were most often associated to the hospitalization in patients with respiratory problems, have been defined by means of a ML model. In Sun et al (56), researchers employed a Support Vector Machine (SVM) model where input data Classification scheme and results: green and red rectangles represent the asy/pauci and severe classes respectively; the two numbers are the number of asy/pauci and severe patients, respectively, falling within the class.…”

“…To note, identifying the impact of being overweight/obesity in a high-risk group of an immunosuppressed population is of paramount importance for defining therapeutic decisions, patient flow management, and the allocation of resources in the COVID-19 setting [ 9 ]. Therefore, we sought to investigate the risk factors associated with oxygen requirements in overweight/obese KTRs with COVID-19.…”

“…Viral shedding is a major consideration for patients to end isolation because a higher viral load (lower Ct values) means these patients are more contagious ( Li et al, 2022 ). Thus, early identification of whether patients clear the virus in a short period of time will contribute to therapeutic decisions, management measures, patient flow management, and resource allocation ( De Freitas et al, 2022 ).…”
