Abstract

Much of medical data is buried in the free text of clinical notes and not captured by structured data, such as administrative codes. Natural language processing (NLP) can locate and use information that resides in unstructured free text. Chan etal. demonstrate that NLP is sensitive for identifying symptoms in hemodialysis patients. These findings highlight the benefit NLP may bring to nephrology and should prompt discussion of important considerations for NLP system design and implementation.
