Intraoperative circulation predict prolonged length of stay after head and neck free flap reconstruction: a retrospective study based on machine learning

BackgroundHead and neck free flap reconstruction presents challenges in managing intraoperative circulation, potentially leading to prolonged length of stay (PLOS). Limited research exists on the associations between intraoperative circulation and PLOS given the difficulty of manual quantification o...

description BackgroundHead and neck free flap reconstruction presents challenges in managing intraoperative circulation, potentially leading to prolonged length of stay (PLOS). Limited research exists on the associations between intraoperative circulation and PLOS given the difficulty of manual quantification of intraoperative circulation time-series data. Therefore, this study aimed to quantify intraoperative circulation data and investigate its association with PLOS after free flap reconstruction utilizing machine learning algorithms.Methods804 patients who underwent head and neck free flap reconstruction between September 2019 and February 2021 were included. Machine learning tools (Fourier transform, et al.) were utilized to extract features to quantify intraoperative circulation data. To compare the accuracy of quantified intraoperative circulation and manual intraoperative circulation assessments in the PLOS prediction, predictive models based on these 2 assessment methods were developed and validated.ResultsIntraoperative circulation was quantified and a total of 114 features were extracted from intraoperative circulation data. Quantified intraoperative circulation models with a real-time predictive manner were constructed. A higher area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was observed in quantified intraoperative circulation data models (0.801 [95% CI, 0.733–0.869]) compared to manual intraoperative circulation assessment models (0.719 [95% CI, 0.641–0.797]) in PLOS prediction.ConclusionMachine learning algorithms facilitated quantification of intraoperative circulation data. The developed real-time quantified intraoperative circulation prediction models based on this quantification offer a potential strategy to optimize intraoperative circulation management and mitigate PLOS following head and neck free flap reconstruction.
