We propose and validate a domain knowledge-driven classification model for diagnosing post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC), also known as Long COVID, using Electronic Health Records (EHRs) data.

This study applies predictive analytics to identify patients at risk of missing appointments at a novel post-discharge clinic (PDC) in a large academic health system. Recognizing the critical role of appointment adherence in the success of new clinical ventures, this research aims to inform future targeted interventions to increase appointment adherence.

Over the last decade, treatment of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has become dependent on tissue and/or blood biomarkers to guide treatment decisions. Timely access to comprehensive biomarker and tumor signature information is crucial for diagnostic testing. With the rapid development and implementation of complex biomarker testing, comprehensive molecular profiling with in-depth analysis of DNA, RNA, and proteins can be easily performed. Initial data from the MedStar [...]

In 2016, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the Department of Energy (DOE) established an Interagency Agreement (IAA), the Million Veteran Program-Computational Health Analytics for Medical Precision to Improve Outcomes Now (MVP-CHAMPION) research collaboration.

Research on firearm violence is largely limited to people who experienced acute bodily trauma and death which is readily gathered from Inpatient and Emergency Department settings and mortality data. Exposures to firearm violence, such as witnessing firearm violence or losing a loved one to firearm violence, are not routinely collected in health care. As a result, the true public health burden of firearm violence is underestimated. Clinical notes from electronic [...]

To assess the current state of sex, sexual orientation, and gender identity (SSOGI) data collection options in US electronic health record (EHR) platforms.

Digital interventions are increasingly in demand to address mental health concerns, with significant potential to reach populations that disproportionately face barriers to accessing mental health care. Challenges with user engagement, however, persist. The goal of this study was to develop user personas to inform the development of a digital mental health intervention (DMHI) for a perinatal population.

Health systems are increasingly accountable for patients and require accurate electronic health record (EHR) vital status. We recently demonstrated that 19% of seriously ill primary care patients in one system were not marked dead in the EHR and 80% of these decedents had an encounter or appointment outstanding after death. Herein we describe the mechanism of identifying decedents whose death is not captured at the level of the EHR, characterize [...]

To improve the performance of a social risk score (a predictive risk model) using electronic health record (EHR) structured and unstructured data.

To determine whether the addition of a primary aldosteronism (PA) predictive model to a secondary hypertension decision support tool increases screening for PA in a primary care setting.
