Developing a Machine Learning Model for Predicting 30-Day Major Adverse Cardiac and Cerebrovascular Events in Patients Undergoing Noncardiac Surgery: Retrospective Study by Ju-Seung Kwun, Houng-Beom Ahn, Si-Hyuck Kang, Sooyoung Yoo, Seok Kim, Wongeun Song, Junho Hyun, Ji Seon Oh, Gakyoung Baek, Jung-Won Suh

“… BackgroundConsidering that most patients with low or no significant risk factors can safely undergo noncardiac surgery without additional cardiac evaluation, and given the excessive evaluations often performed in patients undergoing intermediate or higher risk noncardiac surgeries, practical preoperative risk assessment tools are essential to reduce unnecessary delays for urgent outpatient services and manage medical costs more efficiently. ObjectiveThis study aimed to use the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership Common Data Model to develop a predictive model by applying machine learning algorithms that can effectively predict major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery. …”
