BACKGROUND: Referral of patients with heart failure (HF) who are at high mortality risk for specialist evaluation is recommended. Yet, most tools for identifying such patients are difficult to implement in electronic health record (EHR) systems.
Healthcare organizations have realized that Artificial intelligence (AI) can provide a competitive edge through personalized patient experiences, improved patient outcomes, early diagnosis, augmented clinician capabilities, enhanced operational effic...
BACKGROUND: Digital transformation is shaping the future of orthopedics and trauma surgery. Telemedicine, digital health applications, electronic patient records and artificial intelligence play a central role in this. These technologies have the pot...

BACKGROUND: Identifying patients at high risk of falling is crucial in implementing effective fall prevention programs. While the integration of information systems is becoming more widespread in the healthcare industry, it poses a significant challe...
Building clinical registries is an important step in clinical research and improvement of patient care quality. Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods have shown promising results in extracting valuable information from unstructured clinical notes...
OBJECTIVE: The accuracy of deep learning models for many disease prediction problems is affected by time-varying covariates, rare incidence, covariate imbalance and delayed diagnosis when using structured electronic health records data. The situation...
BACKGROUND: Electronic health records (EHRs) are a valuable resource for data-driven medical research. However, the presence of protected health information (PHI) makes EHRs unsuitable to be shared for research purposes. De-identification, i.e. the p...
INTRODUCTION: Electronic health records (EHRs) contain data valuable for clinical research. However, they are in textual format and require manual encoding to databases, which is a lengthy and costly process. Natural language processing (NLP) is a co...
