Enhancing patient safety event reporting by K-nearest neighbor classifier.
The debate on structured or unstructured data entry reveals not only a trade-off problem among data accuracy, completeness, and timeliness, but also a technical gap on text mining. The reesarchers suggested a text classification method for predicting subject categories. Their results demonstrated the feasibility of their system and indicated the advantage of such an application to raise data quality and clinical decision support in reporting patient safety events.
