Estimates of post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC) incidence, also known as Long COVID, have varied across studies and changed over time. We estimated PASC incidence among adult and pediatric populations in three nationwide research networks of electronic health records (EHR) participating in the RECOVER Initiative using different classification algorithms (computable phenotypes). Overall, 7% of children and 8.

While maintaining a compact overview is important, merged event representations caused by the intricate and voluminous patient data bring event recognition, access ambiguity, and inefficient interaction problems. Handling large patient data efficiently is another challenge.

Materials And Methods: We developed three web-based user interfaces (UIs) mimicking the Mass General Brigham's EHR allergy module: the first and second UIs (i.e.
Objective: To provide high-quality data for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) research, we validated derived COVID-19 clinical indicators and 22 associated machine learning phenotypes, in the Mass General Brigham (MGB) COVID-19 Data Mart.
Methods: Fifteen reviewers performed a retrospective manual chart review for 150 COVID-19-positive patients in the data mart. To support rapid chart review for a wide range of target data, we offered a natural language processing (NLP)-based chart review tool, the Digital Analytic Patient Reviewer (DAPR).
Objective: Integrating and harmonizing disparate patient data sources into one consolidated data portal enables researchers to conduct analysis efficiently and effectively.
Materials And Methods: We describe an implementation of Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside (i2b2) to create the Mass General Brigham (MGB) Biobank Portal data repository. The repository integrates data from primary and curated data sources and is updated weekly.
Background: Narrative resources in electronic health records make clinical phenotyping study difficult to achieve. If a narrative patient history can be represented in a timeline, this would greatly enhance the efficiency of information-based studies. However, current timeline representations have limitations in visualizing narrative events.

We aimed to test the hypothesis that the temporal information available in Korean narrative clinical reports can be represented with a temporal formalism defined as an STP. Concurrently, we looked for additional issues in encoding Korean electronic records compared to [1]. [1] Hripcsak G, Zhou L, Parsons S, Das AK, Johnson SB.

Once the patient data are orderly integrated and readily available, the problems in accessing the distributed patient clinical data, the well-known difficulties of adopting a mobile health information system, are resolved. This paper proposes a mobile clinical information system (MobileMed), which integrates the distributed and fragmented patient data across heterogeneous sources and makes them accessible through mobile devices.

As information & communication technologies have advanced, interest in mobile health care systems has grown. In order to obtain information seamlessly from distributed and fragmented clinical data from heterogeneous institutions, we need solutions that integrate data. In this article, we introduce a method for information integration based on real-time message communication using trigger and advanced database technologies.
