Clinical text annotation - what factors are associated with the cost of time?

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Building high-quality annotated clinical corpora is necessary for developing statistical Natural Language Processing (NLP) models to unlock information embedded in clinical text, but it is also time consuming and expensive. Consequently, it important...

FABLE: A Semi-Supervised Prescription Information Extraction System.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Prescription information is an important component of electronic health records (EHRs). This information contains detailed medication instructions that are crucial for patients' well-being and is often detailed in the narrative portions of EHRs. As a...

A Frame-Based NLP System for Cancer-Related Information Extraction.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
We propose a frame-based natural language processing (NLP) method that extracts cancer-related information from clinical narratives. We focus on three frames: cancer diagnosis, cancer therapeutic procedure, and tumor description. We utilize a deep le...

Identifying Cases of Metastatic Prostate Cancer Using Machine Learning on Electronic Health Records.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Cancer stage is rarely captured in structured form in the electronic health record (EHR). We evaluate the performance of a classifier, trained on structured EHR data, in identifying prostate cancer patients with metastatic disease. Using EHR data for...

Assessing Information Congruence of Documented Cardiovascular Disease between Electronic Dental and Medical Records.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Dentists are more often treating patients with Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD) in their clinics; therefore, dentists may need to alter treatment plans in the presence of CVD. However, it's unclear to what extent patient-reported CVD information is accu...

Using Neural Multi-task Learning to Extract Substance Abuse Information from Clinical Notes.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Substance abuse carries many negative health consequences. Detailed information about patients' substance abuse history is usually captured in free-text clinical notes. Automatic extraction of substance abuse information is vital to assess patients' ...

Disease Trajectories and End-of-Life Care for Dementias: Latent Topic Modeling and Trend Analysis Using Clinical Notes.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Despite the increasing prevalence, growing costs, and high mortality of dementia in older adults in the U.S., little is known about the course of these diseases and what care dementia patients receive in their final years of life. Using a large volum...

A Preliminary Study of Clinical Concept Detection Using Syntactic Relations.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
Concept detection is an integral step in natural language processing (NLP) applications in the clinical domain. Clinical concepts are detailed (e.g., "pain in left/right upper/lower arm/leg") and expressed in diverse phrase types (e.g., noun, verb, a...

A Hybrid Residual Network and Long Short-Term Memory Method for Peptic Ulcer Bleeding Mortality Prediction.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
The prediction of patient mortality, which can detect high-risk patients, is a significant yet challenging problem in medical informatics. Thanks to the wide adoption of electronic health records (EHRs), many data-driven methods have been proposed to...

Validation of the Behavior of a Knowledge Base Implementing Clinical Guidelines for Point-of-Care Antiretroviral Toxicity Monitoring.

AMIA ... Annual Symposium proceedings. AMIA Symposium
This study investigated the automated detection of antiretroviral toxicities in structured electronic health records data. The evaluation compared responses generated by 5 clinical pharmacists and 1 prototype knowledge-based application for 15 random...
