A multi-center approach was used to build and validate machine-learning models that predict CV requiring verapamil (CVRV). Patients with SAH from UCLA (2013–2022) and a validation cohort from VUMC (2018–2023) were analyzed using 172 ICU variables, with early performance assessed across multiple timepoints.","UCLA  \nUCLA Previously Published Works  \nTitle  \nMachine learning predicts cerebral vasospasm in patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage.  \nPermalink  \n[https://escholarship.org/uc/item/12m905sn](https://escholarship.org/uc/item/12m905sn)  \nAuthors  \nZarrin, David  \nSuri, Abhinav McCarthy, Karen et al.  \nPublication Date  \n2024-07-01  \nDOI  \n10.1016/j.ebiom.2024.105206  \nPeer reviewed  \n[eScholarship.org](eScholarship.org) Powered by the California Digital Library  \nUniversity of California  \nArticles   \nMachine learning predicts cerebral vasospasm in patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage  \nDavid A.

It is standard practice to admit patients with SAH to intensive care for an extended period of resource-intensive monitoring. We used machine learning to predict CV requiring verapamil (CVRV) in the largest and only multi-center study to date.  \nMethods Patients with SAH admitted to UCLA from 2013 to 2022 and a validation cohort from VUMC from 2018 to 2023 were included. For each patient, 172 unique intensive care unit (ICU) variables were extracted through the primary endpoint, namely ﬁrst verapamil administration or no verapamil. At each institution, a light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM) was trained using ﬁve-fold cross validation to predict the primary endpoint at various hospitalization timepoints.  \nFindings A total of 1750 patients were included from UCLA, 125 receiving verapamil. LightGBM achieved an area under the ROC (AUC) of 0.88 > 1 week in advance and ruled out 8% of non-verapamil patients with zero false negatives. Our models predicted “no CVRV” vs “CVRV within three days” vs “CVRV after three days” with AUCs = 0.88, 0.83, and 0.88, respectively. From VUMC, 1654 patients were included, 75 receiving verapamil. VUMC predictions averaged within 0.01 AUC points of UCLA predictions.  \nInterpretation We present an accurate and early predictor of CVRV using machine learning with multi-center validation. This represents a signiﬁcant step towards optimized clinical management and resource allocation inpatients with SAH.  \nFunding Robert E.
