Abstract

An automated method for ontology generation is provided. In one embodiment, a user inputs a single clinical term or portion of a clinical term representing an adverse event that a patient has experienced. In response, the system causes a list of conceptually related terms to be generated.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a computer-based ontology generation system for receiving a search term and expanding the term into a list of terms related to the received search term. Background technique [0002] Medical care and treatment are virtually ubiquitous in all of humanity. Such care is usually provided by a healthcare provider, and it can include regular checkups, diagnosis, and treatment. In certain instances, a patient experiences an adverse event following treatment, ie, the patient's condition worsens. Currently, there are many computerized systems available to analyze whether an adverse event is causally related to treatment. [0003] Such a system might allow, for example, a user to specify adverse events that a patient is experiencing or has experienced. In response, the system conducts a database search to identify all sources of information in the database that mention the adverse event, and provides the search results to the ...
