Hi - I am running the AggregatePlainTextFastUMLSProcessor in which I am
picking out drug dosage and frequency.
For the most part it is very good, but I have come across a common
phrase type where it trips up. It goes something like:
"Lamictal 100mg in the morning and 150mg nocte"
where the 100mg is picked up in str_num and str_unit, but the 150mg is
not.
Would any of the other analysis engines be able to improve on this, or
does anyone have any suggestions how I can pick up the 150mg and
attribute it to (in this case) Lamictal?
I am not too bothered about the morning and night time instructions,
but in the total does of (in this case) 250 mg.
Is this phrase type currently being worked on for drug annotation? As I
say, this seems to be quite a common phrase and wondered wether it
could be addressed with the devs?
Thanks - Arron.
