About this study

Official title: Machine-learning Model for Perioperative Risk Calculation

The aim of this project is to develop a machine-learning model for calculating the risk of postoperative complications. In addition to the data collected during the premedication, the model will include all intraoperative values recorded in the Patient Data Management System (PDMS), which include not only vital and respiratory parameters, but also medication and doses, intraoperative events and times. Postoperative complications are defined according to their severity according to the Clavien-Dindo score (Dindo, Demartines et al., 2004) and are collected from the data available in the health information system (HIS).

The machine-learning model is created using an extreme-gradient boosting algorithm which has been updated with new data from the year 2021 to ensure accuracy of the model.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. postoperative complications

    Postoperative complications are classified by means of the Clavien-Dindo-Score.

    The Clavien-Dindo-Score describes classes of severity of postoperative complications:

    Grade I: any deviation from the normal postoperative course without the need for pharmacological treatment or surgical, endoscopic and radiological interventions Grade II: requiring pharmacological treatment Grade IIIa: requiring surgical, endoscopic or radiological intervention not under general anesthesia Grade IIIb: requiring surgical, endoscopic or radiological intervention under general anesthesia Grade IVa: single organ dysfunction Grade IVb: multiorgandysfunction Grade V: death of a patient

    Measured: 30 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. in-hospital mortality

    mortality within hospital stay

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Perioperative/Postoperative Complications, run by Technical University of Munich.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Nov 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

postoperative complications (time frame: 30 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04092933, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Nov 2023.
