Abstract
BACKGROUND: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life-threatening condition associated with high mortality rates. Despite advancements in critical care, reliable early prediction methods for ARDS-related mortality remain elusive. Accurate risk assessment is crucial for timely intervention and improved patient outcomes. Machine learning (ML) techniques have emerged as promising tools for mortality prediction in patients with ARDS, leveraging complex clinical datasets to identify key prognostic factors. However, the efficacy of ML-based models remains uncertain. This systematic review aims to assess the value of ML models in the early prediction of ARDS mortality risk and to provide evidence supporting the development of simplified, clinically applicable ML-based scoring tools for prognosis.
