One unintended consequence of the Electronic Health Records (EHR) implementation is the overuse of content-importing technology, such as copy-and-paste, that creates "bloated" notes containing large amounts of textual redundancy. Despite the rising i...
BACKGROUND: Methods that can automate, support, and streamline the preanesthesia evaluation process may improve resource utilization and efficiency. Natural language processing (NLP) involves the extraction of relevant information from unstructured t...
The Electronic Medical Record (EMR) provides an opportunity to manage patient care efficiently and accurately. This includes clinical decision support tools for the timely identification of adverse events or acute illnesses preceded by deterioration....
The prevalence of patients who are Incapacitated with No Evident Advance Directives or Surrogates (INEADS) remains unknown because such data are not routinely captured in structured electronic health records. This study sought to develop and validate...
Accurate identification of the presence, absence or possibility of relevant entities in clinical notes is important for healthcare professionals to quickly understand crucial clinical information. This introduces the task of assertion classification ...
BACKGROUND: Surgical mechanical ventricular assistance and cardiac replacement therapies, although life-saving in many heart failure (HF) patients, remain high-risk. Despite this, the difficulty in timely identification of medical therapy nonresponde...
Postoperative patients are at risk of life-threatening complications such as hemodynamic decompensation or arrhythmia. Automated detection of patients with such risks via a real-time clinical decision support system may provide opportunities for earl...
Entity alignment aims at associating semantically similar entities in knowledge graphs from different sources. It is widely used in the integration and construction of professional medical knowledge. The existing deep learning methods lack term-level...
