Survival Prediction for Patients with Cirrhosis

Cirrhosis is one of the major causes of death around the world. Hence, the possibility of survival prediction among patients affected by this disease constitutes the principal factor in properly planning treatment and management procedures. This work aims to design a predictive model of the probability of survival of patients who have cirrhosis based on patient data, including clinical parameters, medical history, and laboratory findings of these patients. The data-driven machine learning algorithm improves the predictive accuracy and significantly enhances the clinical decision-making process. This considers multiple predictors: the patient's liver function tests, the demographic factors, and the indicators of disease progression in the body. It will be validated for reliability and accuracy using real-world patient case data. Therefore, this tool could aid clinicians in devising treatment plans that improve patient outcomes and efficiently utilise healthcare resources. This study also contributes to the emerging genre of AI-assisted care because chronic liver disease management, specifically cirrhosis, in this case, requires constituting predictive analytics.
