A system utilizing natural language processing (NLP) pipelines to parse unstructured medical data, identify medical relevance attributes, and generate structured documents, which are then used to create a secure medical dashboard that dynamically adjusts based on user requirements, reducing manual input and computational resources while ensuring data security.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Measurement precision

If manual reading and tagging of medical documents is performed, then data accuracy is improved, but productivity deteriorates due to the time-consuming nature of manual processing

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata accuracyVSAvoidprocessing speed
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The NLP pipeline automatically parses, tags, and structures medical documents without requiring manual human intervention for each document, enabling the system to self-process large volumes of unstructured data while maintaining consistent accuracy standards

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The patent replaces the mechanical manual tagging process with an automated NLP-based system that uses natural language processing algorithms to extract, tag, and structure medical information from unstructured documents, thereby increasing processing speed while maintaining data accuracy

Inventive Principle:
Principle #28Mechanics substitution (Replace mechanical system)

2Adaptability or versatility

If comprehensive patient data is aggregated for various medical needs, then adaptability is improved, but data security deteriorates due to potential confidentiality violations

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedata aggregation flexibilityVSAvoiddata security
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The system applies different security and access control properties to different portions of patient data based on user roles and specific medical needs, allowing comprehensive data aggregation while protecting sensitive information through localized security measures tailored to each data element's sensitivity level

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

Solution Approach 2:

The NLP pipeline acts as an intermediary that processes and structures patient data before making it available to users, enabling adaptability for various medical needs while maintaining security by controlling what information is extracted, how it is formatted, and who can access it through the structured dashboard interface

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Measurement precision

If NLP pipelines are trained with pre-labeled data, then measurement precision is improved, but loss of time increases due to the training process

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetagging accuracyVSAvoidtraining time
Core Design Contradiction:
Measurement precisionVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system performs preliminary action by training the NLP pipeline with pre-labeled medical data in advance, creating a pre-trained model that can then rapidly and accurately process new unstructured medical documents without requiring re-training, thus achieving high tagging accuracy while minimizing time loss during actual operation

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
