Abstract:
The ICD coding is the international standard for the classification of diseases and related disorders, drawn up by the World Health Organization. It was introduced to simplify the exchange of medical data, to speed up statistical analyzes and to make insurance reimbursements efficient. The manual classification of ICD-9-CM codes still requires a human effort that implies a considerable waste of resources and for this reason several methods have been presented over the years to automate the process. In this thesis an approach is proposed for the automatic classification of medical diagnoses i

Abstract:
Electronic patient records, containing data about the health and care of a patient, are a valuable source of information for longitudinal clinical studies. The General Practice Research Database (GPRD) has collected patient records from UK primary care practices since the late 1980s. These records contain both structured data (in the form of codes and numeric values) and free text notes. While the structured data have been used extensively in clinical studies, there are significant practical obstacles in extracting information from the free text notes. The main obstacles are data access restri

Coding Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) with diagnosis and procedure codes is an essential task for billing, secondary data analyses, and monitoring health trends. Both speed and accuracy of coding are critical.

Therefore, it is necessary to develop automated diagnosis and procedure code recommendation methods that can be used by professional medical coders. The main difficulty wit

Abstract:
La non-adhérence médicamenteuse désigne les situations où le patient ne suit pas les directives des autorités médicales concernant la prise d'un médicament. Il peut s'agir d'une situation où le patient prend trop (sur-usage) ou pas assez (sous-usage) de médicaments, boit de l'alcool alors qu'il y a une contrindication, ou encore commet une tentative de suicide à l'aide de médicaments. Selon [HAYNES 2002] améliorer l'adhérence pourrait avoir un plus grand impact sur la santé de la population que tout autre amélioration d'un traitement médical spécifique. Cependant les données sur la non-adhéren

Abstract:
Data within the medical sector is often stored as free text entries. This is especially true for report texts, which are written after an examination. To be able to automatically gather data from these texts they need to be analyzed and classified to show what findings the examinations had. This thesis compares three state of the art deep learning approaches to classify short medical report texts. This is done for two types of examinations, so the concept of transfer learning plays a role in the evaluation. An optimal model should learn concepts that are applicable for more than one type of ex

Abstract:
Cette thèse porte sur l’impact de l’usage de la sémantique dans le processus de la classification supervisée de textes. Cet impact est évalué au travers d’une étude expérimentale sur des documents issus du domaine médical et en utilisant UMLS (Unified Medical Language System) en tant que ressource sémantique. Cette évaluation est faite selon quatre scénarii expérimentaux d’ajout de sémantique à plusieurs niveaux du processus de classification. Le premier scénario correspond à la conceptualisation où le texte est enrichi avant indexation par des concepts correspondant dans UMLS ; le deuxième et

Abstract:
Bakgrund “The Timed Water Swallow Test” (TWST) är ett screeningverktyg för dysfagi som ger ett mått på en persons sväljkapacitet (ml/s). Tidigare normeringsstudier har konstaterat att en sväljkapacitet under 10 ml/s är en indikator på sväljningsdysfunktion för personer under 70 år. Huruvida denna gränsnivå är representativ för personer över 70 år är dock något oklart då det föreligger brister i normvärden för den äldre populationen. Eftersom dysfagi är vanligare bland äldre personer är det viktigt att det finns tillförlitliga normvärden för att TWST ska kunna tolkas med större tillförlitlighet

Abstract This study examines which measures that are possible to take whilst translating a medical text, in order to make it more subtle, more personal and to draw the reader’s attention to the essential information. Whilst doing this we have to keep in mind the importance of making sure that the text will work in its new cultural situation. This study will also bring up the other factors that will have to be respected and taken into account in order to place the text correctly in the new cultural and moral context. We have used Vinay and Darbelent’s methodology to help us with both the transl
