Diastolic Dysfunction Prediction with Symptoms Using Machine Learning Approach

Cardiac disease is the major cause of deathsall over the world, with 17.9 million deaths annually, as perWorld Health Organization reports. The purpose of this study is to enable a cardiologist to early predict the patient’scondition before performing the echocardiography test. This study aims to find out whether diastolic function or diastolic dysfunction using symptomsthrough machine learning.We used the unexplored dataset of diastolic dysfunction disease in this study and checked the symptoms with cardiologist to be enough to predict the disease.For this study, the records of 1285 patients were used, out of which 524 patients had diastolic function and the other 761 patients had diastolic dysfunction. The input parameters considered in this detection include patient age, gender, BP systolic, BP diastolic, BSA, BMI, hypertension, obesity, and Shortness of Breath (SOB). Various machine learning algorithms were used for this detection including Random Forest, J.48, Logistic Regression, and Support Vector Machine algorithms.As a result, with an accuracy of 85.45%, Logistic Regression provided promising resultsand proved efficient for early prediction of cardiac disease. Other algorithms had anaccuracy as follow,J.48 (85.21%), Random Forest (84.94%), and SVM (84.94%).Using a machine learning tool and a patient’s dataset of diastolic dysfunction, we can declare either a patient has cardiac disease or not.
