In this paper, we propose a novel ontology-based approach for text mining of EMR information retrieval. The advantage of this approach is that it is capable of handling numerous variations in nature text which essentially refer to the same identity, as well as inferring implicit information from the plain text, which are both important in data mining of medical records. We applied the approach to...
As the use of electronic medical records (EMRs) becomes more widespread, so does the need for effective information discovery within them. Recently proposed EMR standards are XML-based. A key characteristic in these standards is the frequent use of ontological references, i.e., ontological concept codes appear as XML elements and are used to associate portions of the EMR document with concepts defined...
Medical informatics is an interdisciplinary field of research, where a great deal of collaboration is required to achieve efficient solutions. In this paper we bring in the concept of implementing autonomic computing in medical informatics. The work is in the aspect of maintaining and accessing patientpsilas medical records and/or further retrieval of data in an efficient way with the role of autonomic...
The technology exists for the migration of healthcare data from its archaic paper-based system to an electronic one, and, once in digital form, to be transported anywhere in the world in a matter of seconds. The advent of universally accessible healthcare data has benefited all participants, but one of the outstanding problems that must be addressed is how the creation of a standardized nationwide...
As the use of electronic medical records (EMRs) becomes more widespread, so does the need for effective information discovery on them. Recently proposed EMR standards are XML-based, having as a key characteristic the frequent use of ontological references, i.e., ontological concept codes appear as XML elements and are used to associate portions of the EMR document with concepts defined in a domain...
This paper attempts to explore the application of electronic medical record (EMR) from information retrieval perspectives? The paper discussed indexing challenges in EMR, information extraction and the possible use of XML to structure medical record on the Web.
We describe and report preliminary results of a prototype XML-based method that facilitates the retrieval and navigation of common practice guidelines by physicians at the point of care. The method can be invoked by clicking at "infobuttons" linked to problems in an electronic medical record. Each infobutton displays a list of questions that are categorized and sorted according to the classification...
