Popis: | Precision medicine or evidence based medicine is based on the extraction of knowledge from medical records to provide individuals with the appropriate treatment in the appropriate moment according to the patient features. Despite the efforts of using clinical narratives for clinical decision support, many challenges have to be faced still today such as multilinguarity, diversity of terms and formats in different services, acronyms, negation, to name but a few. The same problems exist when one wants to analyze narratives in literature whose analysis would provide physicians and researchers with highlights. In this talk we will analyze challenges, solutions and open problems and will analyze several frameworks and tools that are able to perform NLP over free text to extract medical entities by means of Named Entity Recognition process. We will also analyze a framework we have developed to extract and validate medical terms. In particular we present two uses cases: (i) medical entities extraction of a set of infectious diseases description texts provided by MedlinePlus and (ii) scales of stroke identification in clinical narratives written in Spanish. |
