Abstract

Objective: To anticipate changes in quality of life (QoL) evaluations for hemodialysis patients. over the course of the following month and to use ML to establish an early warning system. 
Materials and methods: A hospital with a dialysis unit hosted the trial, which lasted one month and included an approaching group. Approximately 78 patients have been enrolled up to this date. Preformed including demographic information MBBS-degree holding medical professionals administered the validated WHO-BREF. It has to be done again on the same patient a month later by the same investigator. R and Orange were used for machine learning, while SPSS version 24 was used to provide basic statistics.
Results: In order to predict whether a patient's WHO-QOL-BREF score would increase or decrease by 5% over the course of a month, two models were developed using ML methods. A 5% or greater loss in QOL scores occurs over the course of the next month as a result of declines in the psychosomatic, substantial, and societal domain scores.
Conclusion: The Dialysis Data Interpretation for Algorithmic-Prediction on QOL early warning system based on ML was developed to identify quickly declining QOL scores in the hemdialysis sample. The model suggested that improving the psychological and ecological domains in exacting could be able to arrest the fall in QOL ratings. If DIAL is used more widely, it should benefit patients by guaranteeing a greater QOL and reducing the long-term cost burden.
