High Accuracy Information Retrieval and Information Extraction System for Electronic Clinical Notes

Patrick, J. and Li, M.

There is a great demand for highly accurate and timely Information Retrieval and Information Extraction in medicine and health care. To meet this need, we have developed a novel system, Intelligent Clinical Notes System (ICNS) to assist doctors in retrieving clinical notes based on concept searching. This has required dealing with the both the software engineering and natural language processing aspects of the task This system has been installed and integrated into the existing clinical information system in the Intensive Care Unit, Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Sydney.
