LLM framework reconstructs patient mental health journeys from EHRs

Researchers have developed CliniCIRCA, a novel framework utilizing large language models to reconstruct longitudinal patient journeys from unstructured electronic health record (EHR) narratives. This system is designed to temporally classify clinical events within mental health care, even when explicit timestamps are absent. CliniCIRCA was evaluated on MIMIC-III data, producing over 15,000 temporally tagged events, which were then refined through clinician feedback to create a verified gold-standard dataset. This framework aims to improve clinical understanding of patient progression and can be scaled to generate training data for other models. AI

IMPACT This framework could enhance clinical decision-making by providing structured patient histories, potentially improving mental health treatment.

    CliniCIRCA: A Modular LLM Framework for Constructing Longitudinal Mental Health Patient Journeys from Raw EHR Narratives

    arXiv:2609.19585v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In mental health care, reasoning over patient journeys is a key task for clinicians. Yet these journeys, encompassing a longitudinal progression of biological, psychological, and social events, are often spread across disparate un…
