Unsupervised machine learning analysis to identify patterns of ICU medication use for fluid overload prediction summary
In this PACULit episode, Britany and Seth discuss Keats et al.'s study that uses unsupervised machine learning on ICU intravenous medication data to identify pharmacophenotypes associated with fluid overload. By applying principal component analysis for dimensionality reduction and a restricted Boltzmann machine clustering algorithm to 72-hour medication records from 927 adults in a single ICU, the study reveals clusters of similar med usage patterns. One cluster (Cluster Seven), rich in continuous infusions, antibiotics, sedatives, and analgesics, showed substantially higher exposure in patients who developed fluid overload, and overall 13.7% incidence. Adding the cluster information to traditional models improved AUROC from 0.719 to 0.741 (p = 0.027). The episode covers clinical implications, limitations, and future directions, including real-time decision support and prospective multi-center validation.
