Development and Validation of a Novel Scoring System to Quantify the Severity of Incident Reports Using Machine Learning: An exploratory research study
Abstract:Incident reporting systems have been widely adopted to collect information about patient safety incidents. The value of incident reports often lies in the free-text section, but this is often inadequately processed. We developed a novel scoring system that uses machine learning to assess the severity of an incident using the semantic characteristics of text in incident reports. We retrospectively analyzed free-text data extracted from incident reports from between January 2012 and September 2021 at Nagoya Univ… Show more
