Query: Developing and validating multi-modal models for mortality prediction in
  COVID-19 patients: a multi-center retrospective study   The unprecedented global crisis brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic has
sparked numerous efforts to create predictive models for the detection and
prognostication of SARS-CoV-2 infections with the goal of helping health
systems allocate resources. Machine learning models, in particular, hold
promise for their ability to leverage patient clinical information and medical
images for prediction. However, most of the published COVID-19 prediction
models thus far have little clinical utility due to methodological flaws and
lack of appropriate validation. In this paper, we describe our methodology to
develop and validate multi-modal models for COVID-19 mortality prediction using
multi-center patient data. The models for COVID-19 mortality prediction were
developed using retrospective data from Madrid, Spain (N=2547) and were
externally validated in patient cohorts from a community hospital in New
Jersey, USA (N=242) and an academic center in Seoul, Republic of Korea (N=336).
The models we developed performed differently across various clinical settings,
underscoring the need for a guided strategy when employing machine learning for
clinical decision-making. We demonstrated that using features from both the
structured electronic health records and chest X-ray imaging data resulted in
better 30-day-mortality prediction performance across all three datasets (areas
under the receiver operating characteristic curves: 0.85 (95% confidence
interval: 0.83-0.87), 0.76 (0.70-0.82), and 0.95 (0.92-0.98)). We discuss the
rationale for the decisions made at every step in developing the models and
have made our code available to the research community. We employed the best
machine learning practices for clinical model development. Our goal is to
create a toolkit that would assist investigators and organizations in building
multi-modal models for prediction, classification and/or optimization.
