BACKGROUND: Named entity recognition (NER) on Chinese electronic medical/healthcare records has attracted significantly attentions as it can be applied to building applications to understand these records. Most previous methods have been purely data-...
We derived machine learning models utilizing features generated by natural language processing (NLP) of free-text data from an ambulance services provider to identify fall cases. The data comprised samples of electronic patient care records care reco...
OBJECTIVE: Temporal electronic health records (EHRs) contain a wealth of information for secondary uses, such as clinical events prediction and chronic disease management. However, challenges exist for temporal data representation. We therefore sough...
BACKGROUND: Emergency department (ED) crowding has resulted in delayed patient treatment and has become a universal health care problem. Although a triage system, such as the 5-level emergency severity index, somewhat improves the process of ED treat...
With the rapid development of electronic medical records (EMRs), most existing medicine recommendation systems based on EMRs explore knowledge from the diagnosis history to help doctors prescribe medication correctly. However, due to the limitations ...
Accurately predicting wound healing trajectories is difficult for wound care clinicians due to the complex and dynamic processes involved in wound healing. Wound care teams capture images of wounds during clinical visits generating big datasets over...
