Previous Grant Recipients
2024 Marilyn D. Harris Home Care Nursing Research Grant AwardAim of Study: Our study aims to utilize the latest generation of Natural Language Processing (NLP) methods, specifically large language models (LLMs), to efficiently extract pertinent infection risk factors from clinical notes, guided by the Omaha Nursing Problem System. We expect to produce a comprehensive structured vocabulary list of Omaha nursing terms. This improved list will enhance the organized electronic health record (EHR) data. As a result, it will provide a better chance of developing a more accurate infection risk model specifically for home health care (HHC), finally strengthening the support for nurses working in home health care and improve the quality of patient care. Primary Investigator: I am Zidu (Miranda) Xu, a second-year nursing PhD student at Columbia University. Currently, I am co-advised by Dr Maxim Topaz and Dr Jingjing Shang. Before pursuing my PhD, I obtained a Master of Medicine, majoring in Medical Informatics, and a Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
