  • Patent number: 11989199
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for optimizing a flow of data within transform, load (ETL) data processing pipelines. Database columns from a source database that are to be transformed as well as not transformed in the data processing stages of a processing segment of an ETL data processing pipeline are identified. Those database columns that are to be transformed are grouped into a processing schema. Transformations are then performed on the database columns of the processing schema. Those database columns that are not to be transformed are grouped into a non-processing schema. A large object data type (LOB) is then created to reference the non-processing schema. An identifier is created and inserted in the data processing stages to identify the LOB in replace of the database columns that are not to be transformed thereby avoiding the copying of the database columns that are not to be transformed.

  • Patent number: 11990216
    Abstract: A mechanism is provided for implement a discrepancy detection mechanism for detecting discrepancies between clinical notes and administrative records. Clinical concepts are extracted from the clinical notes and the administrative records in a patient's electronic medical records (EMRs). The extracted clinical concepts are filtered based on semantic type information to identify concepts that reference diseases or syndromes while also removing negated instances. Utilizing the positive mentions of diseases in clinical notes, the positive mentions of diseases or syndromes in the clinical notes are compared against each positive entry in the administrative records. A discrepancy summary is then generated for diseases or syndromes that failed to translate correctly from clinical notes to the administrative records in the patient's EMRs.
