Standardized patient profile review using large language models for case adjudication in observational research.

Using administrative claims and electronic health records for observational studies is common but challenging due to data limitations. Researchers rely on phenotype algorithms, requiring labor-intensive chart reviews for validation. This study investigates whether case adjudication using the previously introduced Knowledge-Enhanced Electronic Profile Review (KEEPER) system with large language models (LLMs) is feasible and could serve as a viable alternative to manual chart review.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in 34 days old infant with SARS-COV-2 associated pneumonia.

We present a case of successful veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) in infant with SARS-COV-2 associated pneumonia. To the best of our knowledge, this patient was the youngest infant successfully discharged after the VA-ECMO for COVID-19. We report one complication of ECMO support, which was bleeding from the site of the radial artery cannulation.
