Predicting mortality amongst Jordanian men with heart attacks using the chi-square automatic interaction detection model

Abstract

Background: One of the most complicated cardiovascular diseases in the world is heart attack. Since men are the most likely to develop cardiac diseases, accurate prediction of these conditions can help save lives in this population. This study proposed the Chi-Squared Automated Interactive Detection (CHAID) model as a prediction algorithm to forecast death versus life among men who might experience heart attacks. Methods: Data were extracted from the electronic health solution system in Jordan using a retrospective, predictive study. Between 2015 and 2021, information on men admitted to public hospitals in Jordan was gathered. Results: The CHAID algorithm had a higher accuracy of 93.72% and an area under the curve of 0.792, making it the best top model created to predict mortality among Jordanian men. It was discovered that among Jordanian men, governorates, age, pulse oximetry, medical diagnosis, pulse pressure, heart rate, systolic blood pressure, and pulse pressure were the most significant predicted risk factors of mortality from heart attack. Conclusion: With heart attack complaints as the primary risk factors that were predicted using machine learning algorithms like the CHAID model, demographic characteristics and hemodynamic readings were presented.
