BACKGROUND: Chronic cough (CC) is difficult to identify in electronic health records (EHRs) due to the lack of specific diagnostic codes. We developed a natural language processing (NLP) model to identify cough in free-text provider notes in EHRs fro...

BACKGROUND: Building a large-scale medical knowledge graphs needs to automatically extract the relations between entities from electronic medical records (EMRs) . The main challenges are the scarcity of available labeled corpus and the identification...
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to develop and validate a machine learning (ML) model to predict the probability of a vaginal delivery (Partometer) using data iteratively obtained during labor from the electronic health record.
Natural language processing (NLP) techniques for electronic health records have shown great potential to improve the quality of medical care. The text of radiology reports frequently constitutes a large fraction of EHR data, and can provide valuable ...
BACKGROUND: Developing predictive models for precision psychiatry is challenging because of unavailability of the necessary data: extracting useful information from existing electronic health record (EHR) data is not straightforward, and available cl...
Machine-learning based risk prediction models have the potential to improve patient outcomes by assessing risk more accurately than clinicians. Significant additional value lies in these models providing feedback about the factors that amplify an ind...
BACKGROUND: Machine learning algorithms are currently used in a wide array of clinical domains to produce models that can predict clinical risk events. Most models are developed and evaluated with retrospective data, very few are evaluated in a clini...
OBJECTIVES: The objective of this paper is to draw attention to the currently underused potential of clinical documentation by nursing and allied health professions to improve the representation of social determinants of health (SDoH) and intersectio...
Artificial intelligence (AI) is an overarching term that encompasses a set of computational approaches that are trained through generalised learning to autonomously execute specific tasks. AI is a rapidly expanding field in medicine. In particular ca...
