Abstract

Embodiments diagnose an emergency room (“ER”) patient. Embodiments receive an identifier of the patient and search and retrieve relevant information factors for the patient from publicly available sources using the identifier using a trained machine learning (“ML”) model. The trained ML model is configured to identify and fetch medically relevant information of the patient in response to the identifier of the patient. Embodiments weight each of the retrieved factors relative to contributing to a diagnoses of the patient and assign a score to each of the retrieved factors and provide the scores and corresponding diagnoses to ER personnel.

Abstract

Systems, methods and computer-readable media are provided for determining conformity to performance of meaningful use measures in human health care delivery. A Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo statistical process is utilized to achieve reliable estimates for such measures despite the small subgroup sample sizes accruing during each measurement period. One embodiment utilizes zero- and one-inflated beta regression that is robust against moderate prevalence of zero or one counts in the numerators for such measurements and determinations of statistical associations with such factors as clinician, care venue, and patient attributes. Based on the determined conformity, a notification is provided to provider clinicians or organization management indicating the conformity and, in some instances, a degree of conformity.

Abstract

Systems for testing computing devices of a medical records system using a simulated environment are provided. The simulated environment is generated by identifying transaction traffic over the network, where the transaction traffic comprises messages of different transaction types. A computing device is configured to output a simulated status by extrapolating a performance of the computing devices upon receiving a series of messages indicating the transaction types. The output of the computing device may indicate an error in the simulated environment where the performance of a computing device exceeds a performance threshold. Based on the error indication, transaction traffic can be diverted from the computing device to another computing device having performance capacity.

Abstract

Techniques for early prediction of medical billing classification codes and associated medical billing costs using routine clinical text are disclosed. The system predicts the medical billing codes within defined hours of admission by generating vector embeddings from a set of medical notation data, bypassing the need for post-discharge medical codes. Using a novel segmentation technique, the system processes lengthy medical notation data by dividing them into smaller subsequences. These subsequences are input to a large language model (LLM) to generate a plurality of sets of probability values for a set of medical billing classifications. The system selects a particular predicted medical billing classification for the patient based on the sets of probability values. Additionally, the system estimates medical billing costs early in the admission process. The system ensures comprehensive context utilization from clinical notes, enabling hospitals to manage treatment expenses proactively and improve operational efficiency.

Abstract

Systems and methods determine consumability scores of data to be transformed from a source clinical data schema to a target clinical data schema. Determining the consumability score can include calculating values for characteristics of the source data set transformed from the clinical data schema, weighting the individual scores, and aggregating the weighted scores. The consumability score may indicate a predicted suitability of the transformed data for a target use. Further, the system can generate recommendations for using the target data set based on the consumability score. The determination can include predicting whether the transformation produces elements of a target data set are sufficient for the intended purposes of users of the target data set, whether the source data set includes sufficient information that can be mapped to the target clinical data schema, and whether the transformation captures the source data set in sufficient quantity and quality.

Abstract

Techniques for generating recommendations of model domain entities from a model domain for mapping to comparison domain entities from a comparison domain are provided. A model domain includes a code set of standard references codes. A comparison domain includes a code set of reference codes that include non-standard reference codes. The reference codes represent clinical and non-clinical health concepts and are represented by one or more attributes. The system generates vector embeddings for entities of the comparison and model domains by applying a vector embedding function to the attributes fields of the comparison and model domain entities. The system compares the vector embeddings of the comparison domain entity to the vector embeddings of the model domain entity to compute similarity metrics for the entity pairs. The entity pairs are presented to a user based on the similarity metrics. A selected model domain entity is mapped to the comparison domain entity.

Abstract

The system and methods for predicting sleep apnea in subjects using machine-learning models. The method entails collecting a dataset from a variety of data sources such as electronic records, sleep audio data, or biometric sensor data from wearable devices. A set of features are extracted from the dataset including demographic features, comorbidities features, anthropometric features, or sleep history features. The method generates a set of compound features by performing transformations on the set of features. The extracted set of features and generated set of compound features are collated into a compound feature vector used for training the machine-learning models. The models accurately predict the sleep apnea intensity score which is mapped to a sleep apnea category such as controlled, mild, moderate, or severe apnea. Based on the predicted sleep apnea category treatment regimens as action strategies are recommended to the users.

The system generates vector embeddings for unmapped standard codes by applying a vector embedding function to a dataset of the unmapped standard codes. The system compares a target vector embedding for a target unmapped proprietary code to the vector embeddings computed for each of the mapped and unmapped standard codes. Based on a similarity measure between the target vector embedding and the vector embeddings for the mapped and unmapped standard codes, the system selects a subset of the mapped and unmapped standard codes for recommending to the user as a set of candidate standard codes for mapping to the target unmapped proprietary code.

Abstract

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for identification of patients having an elevated near-term risk of chronic kidney disease progression, including quantitatively predicting whether or not an elevated risk of progression of Stage 3 or Stage 4 chronic kidney disease is likely within a time interval of up to 36 months subsequent to computing the prediction. Based on the prediction, appropriate care providers may be notified so that the risk of CKD progression may be mitigated. In some embodiments, serial measurements are obtained of urine osmolality, and a challenge with an AVP V2 antagonist and serum sodium concentration is provided. From a time series based on the serial measurements, estimates of each variable's velocity and/or doubling-time may be determined. These values then may be combined via a multivariable mathematical model for providing a leading indicator of near-term future abnormalities in kidney function.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are provided for patient case and care complexity characterization, and detecting matches of an individual patient's record with collections of other patients' records, based on serial, longitudinal patterns, for facilitating efficient health services utilization, implementing programs to reduce complexity, preventive medicine, and risk management in health care. In an embodiment, time series are formed by electronically representing information pertaining to successive longitudinal episodes of health services utilization and the circumstances in which the episodes were incurred; calculating time-series K-nearest-neighbor clusters and distances for each combination; determining the cluster to which a given candidate patient complexity record is nearest, and prescribing one or more interventions specific to hazards that are characteristic of trajectories that are members of that cluster, or that are deemed to be relevant to mitigating those hazards, thereby preventing the adverse outcomes and subsequent excess utilization that are prevalent in that cluster.

Abstract

Various tools are disclosed for providing assistive or augmentative means to enhance the fluency and accuracy of persons having speech disabilities. These technologies may automatically ascertain and dynamically improve the accuracy with which automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems recognize utterances of persons having impaired speech conditions. In an embodiment, digitized audio information about a speaker's utterance is processed to determine a set of candidate words matching the utterance. From these candidate words, a set of concepts is determined using a finite state machine model. A pictogram representing each concept is identified and presented to the speaker so that the speaker may select the pictogram corresponding to the best match of his or her intended meaning associated with the utterance. An action corresponding to speaker's selection then may be performed. For example, displaying or synthesizing speech from textual information describing the selected concept.

Abstract

Systems, methods and computer-readable media are provided for monitoring patients and quantitatively predicting whether an event, such as a significant change in health status meriting intervention, is likely to occur within a future time interval subsequent to computing the prediction. Medical data for a patient is collected from one or more different inputs and used to determine time series data. From this, a forecasted numerical value is computed for one or more physiologic parameters associated with the patient, which may be used to further monitor the patient and facilitate decision making about a need for intensified monitoring or intervention to prevent or manage deterioration of hemostasis. An evolutionary algorithm, such as particle swarm optimization and/or differential evolution, may be used to determine the most probable value of the one or more physiologic parameters at one or more future times.

Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for delivering healthcare records with low latency. Healthcare data is collected from various disparate healthcare data sources. The data is filtered in accordance with routing rules to identify healthcare data to deliver to a processing node. The routing rules specify that healthcare data from a particular originating source of a particular data type is to be delivered to a particular processing node. The healthcare data is converted to a local format for use by a computing solution. This system of delivering healthcare data with low latency ensures that the data is delivered to the correct location in the correct format, even if the routing rules change.

Abstract

Decision support technology is provided for use with patients prone to recurrent urolithiasis. A mechanism is provided to determine a forecast of urolithiasis for a patient over a future time interval. The forecast may be based on temporal patterns in urinalysis parameters of the patient. In one embodiment, the mechanism utilizes a time series Hölder exponent and recurrence quantification analysis (RQA) recurrence rate to generate a forecast of recurrent symptomatic urolithiasis for a future time, such as a multi-year time horizon. Based on the generated forecast, one or more intervening actions may be carried out automatically or may be recommended, including modifying a care program for the patient, automatically scheduling interventions or consultations with specialist caregivers, or generating notifications such as electronic messages or alerts.

Abstract

Systems, methods and computer-readable media are provided for monitoring patients and quantitatively predicting whether an event, such as a significant change in health status meriting intervention, is likely to occur within a future time interval subsequent to computing the prediction. Medical data for a patient is collected from one or more different inputs and used to determine time series data. From this, a forecasted numerical value is computed for one or more physiologic parameters associated with the patient, which may be used to further monitor the patient and facilitate decision making about a need for intensified monitoring or intervention to prevent or manage deterioration of hemostasis. An evolutionary algorithm, such as particle swarm optimization and/or differential evolution, may be used to determine the most probable value of the one or more physiologic parameters at one or more future times.

Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer-storage media are provided for determining an individual's second event risk score where the second event risk score represents a likelihood that the individual will experience the second event within a predetermined time period after the occurrence of a first event. Upon occurrence of the first event, a sampling protocol is initiated where an electronic medical record store is accessed on a predetermined schedule to sample a pre-selected set of medical data elements for the individual. Logistic regression analysis is executed on the pre-selected set of medical data elements to generate a second event risk score for the individual. The second event risk score is communicated to a medical professional managing the medical care of the individual, and the individual's electronic medical record is modified to reflect the second event risk score.

Abstract

System and methods for controlling healthcare devices and systems using voice commands are presented. In some aspects a listening device may receive voice command from a person. The voice command may be translated into human readable or machine readable text via a speech-to-text service. A control component may receive the text and send device-specific instructions to a medical device associated with a patient based on the translated voice command. In response to the instructions, the medical device may take an action on a patient. Some examples of actions taken may include setting an alarm limit on a monitor actively monitoring a patient and adjusting the amount of medication delivered by an infusion pump. Because these devices may be controlled using a voice command, in some cases, no physical or manual interaction is needed with the device. As such, multiple devices may be hands-free controlled from any location.

Abstract

A system and method for predicting resource usage using machine-learning models. The method entails collecting a dataset from a variety of data sources such as electronic medical/health records or medical registries. The method identifies if an outreach communication occurred or is scheduled to occur for a subject. A set of features are extracted from the dataset and the method generates derived features from one or more extracted features. The extracted features and generated set of derived features are collated into a candidate feature vector used for training the machine-learning models. The models generate a predicted likelihood of the subject seeking care at the medical facility within a defined time period. Based on the predicted likelihoods of the subjects seeking care at the medical facility, the method predicts an upcoming resource demand at the medical facility. The method generates a recommended action in case predicted resource demand exceeds a threshold.

Abstract

Methods, computer systems, and computer-storage medium are provided for providing closed-loop intelligence. A selection of data is received, at a cloud service, from a database comprising data from a plurality of sources in a Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) format to build a data model. After a feature vector corresponding to the data model is extracted, a selection of an algorithm for a machine learning model to apply to the data model is received. A portion of the selection of data is utilized for training data and test data and the machine learning model is applied to the training data. Once the model is trained, the trained machine learning model can be saved at the cloud service, where it may be accessed by others.

Abstract

A system, method and article of manufacture are presented for improving therapy such as adjustment of a chronotherapeutic pharmaceutical regimen. Physiological variables are measured longitudinally and a time series of the measurements is constructed. In some cases, a time series is pre-whitened and transformed to a frequency spectrum while applying multi-taper filtering, and entropy or other statistical measures are calculated for the power spectral distribution. Improved timing, medication and dosage are individually or collectively improved and/or verified through successive testing. An improvement is illustrated for hypertension, using medication to achieve autonomic control and to reduce blood pressure variability and to reduce spectral diversion.

Abstract

Systems and methods are provided for evaluating an alarm condition for a monitored patient in a population of one or more patients. One or more physiological parameters pertaining to the patient, or physiological variables, are used to form a time series describing the patient status. A quantile threshold is determined for a patient. A monitor is initialized and begins generating a binary raw alarm signal. The binary signal is filtered with a low pass filter, and the filtered data is subjected to a quantile operation to determine if a particular sample exceeds the determined quantile threshold. If the quantile threshold is exceeded, then a check is performed to see if the raw binary alarm signal also indicates an alarm. If both the preliminary alarm indication and the raw binary signal indicate an alarm, then an alarm is emitted; otherwise monitoring continues.

Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for managing health status of persons with a chronic condition including providing dynamic, adaptive monitoring, detection, and prediction of suicide risk to a person at risk for suicide related to mental health. In an embodiment, a patient-assessment application is used to obtain information periodically on a patient's mental health status. Based on this information, a logistic regression model is employed to determine a patient's probability of attempting suicide. The probability is evaluated against a default threshold to determine if the patient's status has changed significantly, and if the threshold is exceeded, an action is evoked. In one embodiment, the action includes providing notice to the patient's care provider, caregiver, or case manager.
