  • The role of machine learning models for predicting in-hospital mortality after transcatheter aortic valve replacement

    Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become the predominant treatment for symptomatic severe tricuspid aortic stenosis for patients at all levels of surgical risk [  ,  ]. Risk prediction models are essential for appropriate patient selection prognostication [  ]. Traditional prediction models generated in a “derivation cohort” and assessed in a “validation cohort” are limited by their immutable dependence on conventional statistical analytics. Such models are suboptimal when applied to large data sets with dynamic variables [  ]. Machine learning algorithms, a product of artificial intelligence, have recently emerged as tools to predict adverse outcomes among patients undergoing cardiovascular interventions [  ]. The broad applicability of machine learning algorithms to TAVR remains uncertain. The aim of this study was to assess the accuracy of machine learning algorithms in predicting in-hospital mortality after TAVR.
