Abstract

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in critically ill patients and is associated with long-term complications and an increased mortality. This work presents preliminary findings from the first freely available European intensive care database released by Amsterdam UMC. A machine learning (ML) model was developed to predict AKI in the intensive care unit 12 hours before the actual event. Main features of the model included medications and hemodynamic parameters. Our models perform with an accuracy of 81.8% on moderate to severe AKI and 79.8% on all AKI patients. Those results can compete with models reported in the literature and introduce an ML model for AKI based on European patient data.
