Explainable predictions of a machine learning model to forecast the postoperative length of stay for severe patients: machine learning model development and evaluation

We successfully predicted the length of stay after surgery and provide explainable models with supporting analyses. In summary, we demonstrate the interpretation with the XGBoost model presenting insights on preoperative features and defining higher risk predictors to the length of stay outcome. Our development in explainable models supports the current in-depth knowledge for the future length of stay prediction on electronic medical records that aids the decision-making and facilitation of the operation department.

Abstract

We successfully predicted the length of stay after surgery and provide explainable models with supporting analyses. In summary, we demonstrate the interpretation with the XGBoost model presenting insights on preoperative features and defining higher risk predictors to the length of stay outcome. Our development in explainable models supports the current in-depth knowledge for the future length of stay prediction on electronic medical records that aids the decision-making and facilitation of the operation department.
