Machine Learning for Prediction of Patients on Hemodialysis with an Undetected SARS-CoV-2 Infection

We developed a machine learning (ML) model that predicts the risk of a patient on hemodialysis (HD) having an undetected SARS-CoV-2 infection that is identified after the following ≥3 days.As part of a healthcare operations effort, we used patient data from a national network of dialysis clinics (February-September 2020) to develop an ML model (XGBoost) that uses 81 variables to predict the likelihood of an adult patient on HD having an...
