Abstract

This paper discusses computational modeling of predictive risk factors for neonates undergoing a Norwood surgical procedure, a multi-stage cardiac procedure that restores functional systemic circulation in patients such as neonates with Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS). In this model, we apply machine learning based binary classication to 549 cases reported by the Pediatric Heart Networks Single Ventricle Reconstruction Trial. We use neural networks classier to predict risk factors for individual patients undergoing a Norwood procedure for the repair of HLHS. Results indicate that independent risk can be calculated with 85% accuracy and 0.94 area under the receiver operating characteristics curve. This model may help physicians provide counseling for families and medically optimize patients prior to surgery by modifying individual risk factors.
