摘要
Background: Hypoperfusion, a common manifestation of many critical illnesses, could lead to abnormalities in body surface thermal distribution. However, the interpretation of thermal images is difficult. Our aim was to assess the mortality risk of critically ill patients at risk of hypoperfusion in a prospective cohort by infrared thermography combined with deep learning methods. Methods: This post-hoc study was based on a cohort at high-risk of hypoperfusion. Patients' legs were selected as the region of interest. Thermal images and conventional hypoperfusion parameters were collected. Six deep learning models were attempted to derive the risk of mortality (range: 0 to 100%) for each patient. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was used to evaluate predictive accuracy. Results: Fifty-five hospital deaths occurred in a cohort consisting of 373 patients. The conventional hypoperfusion (capillary refill time and diastolic blood pressure) and thermal (low temperature area rate and standard deviation) parameters demonstrated similar predictive accuracies for hospital mortality (AUROC 0.73 and 0.77). The deep learning methods, especially the ResNet (18), could further improve the accuracy. The AUROC of ResNet (18) was 0.94 with a sensitivity of 84% and a specificity of 91% when using a cutoff of 36%. ResNet (18) presented a significantly increasing trend in the risk of mortality in patients with normotension (13 [7 to 26]), hypotension (18 [8 to 32]) and shock (28 [14 to 62]). Conclusions: Interpreting infrared thermography with deep learning enables accurate and non-invasive assessment of the severity of patients at risk of hypoperfusion.
