BACKGROUND: Accurate classification of medical records is crucial for clinical documentation, particularly when using the 10th revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) coding system. The use of machine learning algorithms and...
BACKGROUND: Prediction models have demonstrated a range of applications across medicine, including using electronic health record (EHR) data to identify hospital readmission and mortality risk. Large language models (LLMs) can transform unstructured ...
OBJECTIVES: To develop a machine learning-based prediction model using clinical data from the first 24 h of ICU admission to enable rapid screening and early intervention for sepsis patients.
INTRODUCTION: Patients with activated PI3Kδ syndrome (APDS) may elude diagnoses for nearly a decade. Methods to hasten the identification of these patients, and other patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEIs), are needed. We sought to demonstrat...
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to evaluate the performance of multiple large language models (LLMs) in data extraction from unstructured and semi-structured electronic health records.
