Several attempts have been made to predict DGF in the adult population. However, there remains limited information on predicting DGF in children. Therefore, we aim to create a machine learning model that predicts DGF outcomes in children who undergo kidney transplantation. METHODS: An institutional database of children and adolescents who underwent kidney transplantation was examined. Python 3.9.13 was used for model development. The model was built using an 80:20 train-test split. To avoid model bias for lack of DGF outcome, Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique for Nominal and Continuous (SMOTE-NC) was employed, effectively increasing the number of cases of DGF in the dataset in a balanced manner. Extreme Gradient Boosting (XG Boost) was ultimately employed to build our model. Gridsearch was performed to optimize model parameters. RESULTS: A total of 409 patients were included in our analysis. Forty patients had DGF (9.7%). Following SMOTE-NC, the training data generated 295 patients in each group. After training with XG Boost model with Gridsearch parameters, the model had a 5-fold cross-validation accuracy of 93.1% and a receiver operating characteristics (ROC) area under the curve of 91.7%. On evaluation of the confusion matrix, the model had an excellent specificity of 96.0% (71/74) but a rather modest sensitivity of 37.5% (3/8). The deployed model can be found in: https://kimjk4-dgfprediction-app-omaz4b.streamlitapp.com. CONCLUSIONS: The generated model had very high negative predictive value, allowing us to identify patients with high risk of DGF, providing an opportunity for closer monitoring. This novel model is the first attempt at predicting DGF in children undergoing kidney transplantation and holds promise for further development and improvement with additional variables and patient numbers.
