Abstract
Background: Postoperative pain is a prevalent symptom experienced by patients undergoing surgical procedures. This study aims to develop deep learning algorithms for predicting acute postoperative pain using both essential patient details and real-time vital sign data during surgery.
Methods: Through a retrospective observational approach, we utilized Graph Attention Networks (GAT) and graph Transformer Networks (GTN) deep learning algorithms to construct the DoseFormer model while incorporating an attention mechanism. This model employed patient information and intraoperative vital signs obtained during Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) surgery to anticipate postoperative pain. By categorizing the static and dynamic data, the DoseFormer model performed binary classification to predict the likelihood of postoperative acute pain.
Results: A total of 1758 patients were initially included, with 1552 patients after data cleaning. These patients were then divided into training set (n = 931) and testing set (n = 621). In the testing set, the DoseFormer model exhibited significantly higher AUROC (0.98) compared to classical machine learning algorithms. Furthermore, the DoseFormer model displayed a significantly higher F1 value (0.85) in comparison to other classical machine learning algorithms. Notably, the attending anesthesiologists' F1 values (attending: 0.49, fellow: 0.43, Resident: 0.16) were significantly lower than those of the DoseFormer model in predicting acute postoperative pain.
Conclusions: Deep learning model can predict postoperative acute pain events based on patients' basic information and intraoperative vital signs.
期刊介绍:
BMC Medical Research Methodology is an open access journal publishing original peer-reviewed research articles in methodological approaches to healthcare research. Articles on the methodology of epidemiological research, clinical trials and meta-analysis/systematic review are particularly encouraged, as are empirical studies of the associations between choice of methodology and study outcomes. BMC Medical Research Methodology does not aim to publish articles describing scientific methods or techniques: these should be directed to the BMC journal covering the relevant biomedical subject area.
