A machine learning model to predict neurological deterioration after mild traumatic brain injury in older adults

ObjectiveNeurological deterioration after mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been recognized as a poor prognostic factor. Early detection of neurological deterioration would allow appropriate monitoring and timely therapeutic interventions to improve patient outcomes. In this study, we developed...

description ObjectiveNeurological deterioration after mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been recognized as a poor prognostic factor. Early detection of neurological deterioration would allow appropriate monitoring and timely therapeutic interventions to improve patient outcomes. In this study, we developed a machine learning model to predict the occurrence of neurological deterioration after mild TBI using information obtained on admission.MethodsThis was a retrospective cohort study of data from the Think FAST registry, a multicenter prospective observational study of elderly TBI patients in Japan. Patients with an admission Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of 12 or below or who underwent surgical treatment immediately upon admission were excluded. Neurological deterioration was defined as a decrease of 2 or more points from a GCS score of 13 or more within 24 h of hospital admission. The model predictive accuracy was judged with the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) and the area under the precision-recall curve (AUPRC), and the Youden index was used to determine the cutoff value.ResultsA total of 421 of 721 patients registered in the Think FAST registry between December 2019 and May 2021 were included in our study, among whom 25 demonstrated neurological deterioration. Among several machine learning algorithms, eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) demonstrated the highest predictive accuracy in cross-validation, with an AUROC of 0.81 (±0.07) and an AUPRC of 0.33 (±0.08). Through SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) analysis, five important features (D-dimer, fibrinogen, acute subdural hematoma thickness, cerebral contusion size, and systolic blood pressure) were identified and used to construct a better performing model (cross-validation AUROC of 0.84 and AUPRC of 0.34; testing data AUROC of 0.77 and AUPRC of 0.19). At the cutoff value from the Youden index, the model showed a sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value of 60, 96, and 38%, respectively. When neurosurgeons attempted to predict neurological deterioration using the same testing data, their values were 20, 94, and 19%, respectively.ConclusionIn this study, our predictive model showed an acceptable performance in detecting neurological deterioration after mild TBI. Further validation through prospective studies is necessary to confirm these results.
