Enhancing Extubation Failure Prediction with LLM-Derived Features from Respiratory Therapy Clinical Notes

Summary

arXiv:2609.17532v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Invasive mechanical ventilation is a lifesaving therapy, but timely, safe discontinuation is essential to preventing extubation failure (EF) and related risks to health. We present a novel approach to EF prediction that leverages features classified in free-text respiratory therapy notes using a large language model and logistic regression pipeline. Applied to a patient cohort from University of Washington Medicine, our method identifies clinically meaningful EF-related features that improve EF prediction performance when included alongside structured patient data. We further highlight how differences in target populations in prior EF prediction studies, such as heterogenous inclusion criteria and EF definition, can lead to systematic differ…

Abstract:Invasive mechanical ventilation is a lifesaving therapy, but timely, safe discontinuation is essential to preventing extubation failure (EF) and related risks to health. We present a novel approach to EF prediction that leverages features classified in free-text respiratory therapy notes using a large language model and logistic regression pipeline. Applied to a patient cohort from University of Washington Medicine, our method identifies clinically meaningful EF-related features that improve EF prediction performance when included alongside structured patient data. We further highlight how differences in target populations in prior EF prediction studies, such as heterogenous inclusion criteria and EF definition, can lead to systematic differences in model performance and hinder generalizability between studies.
