Tóm tắt

Population based surveillance of surgical site infections (SSIs) requires precise case-finding strategies. We sought to develop and validate machine learning models to automate the process of complex (deep incisional/organ space) SSIs case detection. This retrospective cohort study included adult patients (age ≥ 18 years) admitted to Calgary, Canada acute care hospitals who underwent primary total elective hip (THA) or knee (TKA) arthroplasty between Jan 1st, 2013 and Aug 31st, 2020. True SSI conditions were judged by the Alberta Health Services Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) program staff. Using the IPC cases as labels, we developed and validated nine XGBoost models to identify deep incisional SSIs, organ space SSIs and complex SSIs using administrative data, electronic medical records (EMR) free text data, and both. The performance of machine learning models was assessed by sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, F1 score, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC AUC) and the area under the precision–recall curve (PR AUC). In addition, a bootstrap 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was calculated. There were 22,059 unique patients with 27,360 hospital admissions resulting in 88,351 days of hospital stay. This included 16,561 (60.5%) TKA and 10,799 (39.5%) THA procedures. There were 235 ascertained SSIs. Of them, 77 (32.8%) were superficial incisional SSIs, 57 (24.3%) were deep incisional SSIs, and 101 (42.9%) were organ space SSIs. The incidence rates were 0.37 for superficial incisional SSIs, 0.21 for deep incisional SSIs, 0.37 for organ space and 0.58 for complex SSIs per 100 surgical procedures, respectively. The optimal XGBoost models using administrative data and text data combined achieved a ROC AUC of 0.906 (95% CI 0.835–0.978), PR AUC of 0.637 (95% CI 0.528–0.746), and F1 score of 0.79 (0.67–0.90). Our findings suggest machine learning models derived from administrative data and EMR text data achieved high performance and can be used to automate the detection of complex SSIs.
