Patent number: 10970640Abstract: Methods for text analysis of medical study data to extract predictive data. Natural language processing is performed on a document in a collection of documents to determine whether the document contains medical model data. In response to determining that the document contains medical model data, content relating to the medical model data in the document is annotated. A first medical model is generated based on the annotations for the identified medical model data and a certainty threshold In response to the certainty threshold meeting a user setting, the first medical model is added to a predictive model for determining a risk score, based on the analyzed data.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2015Date of Patent: April 6, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Dhruv A. Bhatt, Kristin E. McNeil, Nitaben A. Patel

Publication number: 20170329931Abstract: A system can associate a life event and a medical condition for a particular patient by identifying the life event using text analysis for the patient's medical records. Medical data associated with the life event can be extracted, and it can be determined that the life event impacts other patients. The medical records for the other patients can then be analyzed, and the medical data relevant to the patient's life event can be extracted. Using the extracted medical data, a medical condition for the primary patient can be determined, and a relationship between the life event and the medical condition can be transmitted.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 7, 2017Publication date: November 16, 2017Inventors: Dhruv A.
