SHARPn High-Throughput Phenotyping

Electronic health records (EHRs) driven phenotyping

• Overarching goal• To develop high-throughput automated

techniques and algorithms that operate on normalized EHR data to identify cohorts of potentially eligible subjects on the basis of disease, symptoms, or related findings

Current HTP project themes

• Standardization of phenotype definitions

• Library of phenotyping algorithms

• Phenotyping workbench

• Machine learning techniques for phenotyping

• Just-in-time phenotyping

Semi-Automatic Execution

• Standardized representation of clinical data

• Create new and re-use existing clinical element models (CEMs)

• Standardized and structured representation of phenotype definition criteria

• Use the NQF Quality Data Model (QDM)

• Conversion of structured phenotype criteria into executable queries

• Use JBoss® Drools (DRLs)

[Welch et al. 2012][Thompson et al., submitted 2012]

[Li et al., submitted 2012]


NQF Quality Data Model (QDM)• Standard of the National Quality Forum (NQF)

• A structure and grammar to represent quality measures in a standardized format

• Groups of codes in a code set (ICD-9, etc.)• "Diagnosis, Active: steroid induced diabetes" using

"steroid induced diabetes Value Set GROUPING (2.16.840.1.113883.3.464.0001.113)”

• Supports temporality & sequences• AND: "Procedure, Performed: eye exam" > 1 year(s)

starts before or during "Measurement end date"

• Implemented as set of XML schemas• Links to standardized terminologies (ICD-9, ICD-10,

SNOMED-CT, CPT-4, LOINC, RxNorm etc.)

Machine learning and HTP - I

• Machine learning and association rule mining• Manual creation of

algorithms take time• Let computers do the

“hard work”• Validate against

expert developed ones


[Caroll et al. 2011]


Machine learning and HTP - II

• Origins from sales data

• Items (columns): co-morbid conditions

• Transactions (rows): patients

• Itemsets: sets of co-morbid conditions

• Goal: find all itemsets (sets of conditions) that frequently co-occur in patients.• One of those conditions should be DM.

• Support: # of transactions the itemset I appeared in• Support({TB, DLM, ND})=3

• Frequent: an itemset I is frequent, if support(I)>minsup

Transfusion-related Acute Lung Injury (TRALI)Transfusion-associated Circulatory Overload (TACO)


Just-in-Time phenotyping - II


TRALI/TACO “sniffer”

Electronic Health Records and Phenomics


Active Surveillance for TRALI and TACO

Of the 88 TRALI cases correctly identified by the CART algorithm, only 11 (12.5%) of these were reported to the blood bank by the clinical service.

Of the 45 TACO cases correctly identified by the CART algorithm, only 5 (11.1%) were reported to the blood bank by the clinical service.
