Acute pancreatitis (AP) with sepsis is a severe and potentially fatal complication. Current predictive systems for identifying high-risk sepsis in AP patients often lack specificity and timeliness, resulting in delays in diagnosis and intervention. This study retrospectively collected data from emergency departments in three tertiary comprehensive hospitals to develop a machine learning (ML) model for the rapid identification of high-risk sepsis in patients with AP. Patients were randomly divided into training and testing datasets (7:3 ratio). In the training dataset, we employed 10 ML algorithms to analyze bedside parameters of patients with AP upon admission. The 10-fold cross-validation was used to find the best parameter and model. The model was then applied to the testing dataset without modifying the model parameters to obtain unbiased classification performance. The performance of the ML model was assessed using the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and compared to scoring systems using the DeLong test. In this study, 771 AP patients were assessed. During hospitalization, 559 patients were diagnosed with sepsis within the first 24 hours, while 212 were not. A Random Forest (RF) model containing 8 features demonstrated the highest area under the curve (AUC) on the cross-validation dataset (AUC: 0.877, accuracy: 0.772), with the AUC of 0.947 and accuracy of 0.836 on the testing dataset. Compared to the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (AUC 0.708), quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (AUC 0.672), and Bedside Index of Severity in Acute Pancreatitis (AUC 0.680), the RF model showed superior performance in predicting sepsis occurrence in patients with AP. This study constructed and validated ML models for the early prediction of sepsis in patients with AP. The RF model provides clinicians with a rapid and useful tool to guide the level of patient care and implement early intervention strategies.
