comprehend-medical-ehr's Introduction

Using Amazon Comprehend Medical to build a digital assistant for doctors

Artificial Intelligence could potentially speed up the development of the process of new drug development, be a bridge to personalized medicine using the information of our genomes, and help address the problem of chronic shortage of doctors, especially in countries where health services are underdeveloped. However, significant challenges remain en-route to this utopian destination.

One is that the application of AI to the world's health problems isn't quite good enough yet. The other is the presence of the world's health data in the form of large unstructured medical text, which makes the process costly, time-consuming, and inefficient. WHO estimates that < 20% of the world's medical data is available in an ingestible format for AI algorithms to learn from.

Luckily, technology and healthcare are having a moment.

Amazon Comprehend Medical is an API-level service which is HIPAA eligible and uses machine learning to extract medical information with high accuracy. It eliminates the barriers to entry to access the biomedical knowledge stored in natural language text - from the research literature that entails biological processes and therapeutic mechanisms of action to the Electronic Medical Records that have the patients’ journeys through our healthcare systems documented.

It helps us comb through that information and study relationships like symptoms, diagnosis, medication, dosage while redacting the Protected Health Information (PHI). The following is an illustrative notebook that includes a step-by-step workflow for analyzing health data on the cloud.

These notebooks will be your go-to guide on using the AWS cloud programmatically and will also expose you to the relevant AWS services. All of this will be finally available as a reusable API for open data analytics workflow on the AWS cloud.

The suggested environment for running these notebooks is Amazon Sagemaker, a fully managed service that covers the entire machine learning pipeline - from labeling of the data to generating actionable insights.

Why digital assistant for doctors?

India is a country with roughly 450 million youth population. As the population grows and ages, more pressure is being put on medical professionals who're already struggling to cope with the increase in administration that comes with more patients wanting to be seen more often. There simply aren't enough doctors to go around.

Moreover, from our public sector clients, we've learned that there's an increasing number of quack doctors dispensing medical consultations to the rural/sub-urban populations of the country. A digital assistant, which records and processes their information to be then reviewed by a registered medical practitioner, will be immensely useful for validation.

  • An extended use case can be in telemedicine where people, with bare minimum access to medical personnel, can record their symptoms in the form of an audio clip which will be then be transcribed and the transcript of the same will be sent to the doctor in the form of a medical resume. This will enable the doctor to offer medical advice to a larger audience, amplifying his presence virtually.

  • A similar use case can be implemented in public hospitals where patients can record audio clips of their symptoms/history of their present illness in the form of an audio clip while waiting in a queue at the Out Patient Department (OPD) or in front of the doctor's cabin. The process will follow the above pipeline and generate a medical resume of the patient which will help the doctor cut through the chaff, prioritize and focus on objectives quicker.

The Solution Architecture

Once we've completed these workflow notebooks we build the following solution architecture, which is serverless and requires no procurement of software licenses. There's no need for managing any servers, virtual or otherwise, or operating systems. These services follow a pay-per-use billing policy.

Setup Notebook Environment

We'll be required to import the Python dependencies. We will begin by installing the following Python packages - wordcloud, matplotlib and pypandoc. We can do them using ! pip as we will be running them outside the notebook environment.

Following the installation of the packages, we'd be required to import the Python dependencies. We need Boto3 - the Python SDK for AWS services, Botocore for managing exceptions. Pandas is the go-to library providing high-performance, easy-to-use data structures and data analysis tools for Python. json is a very handy built-in package called for encoding and decoding JSON data. The IPython.display, Markdown and HTML dependencies are required for well-formatted output from Notebook cells while Audio is for playing the Audio clip within the Sagemaker notebook.

! pip3 install PyPandoc --user
! pip install wordcloud
! pip install matplotlib
from botocore.vendored import requests
import json
import boto3
import pandas as pd
import pypandoc
import time
from IPython.display import display, Markdown, HTML, Audio

Before we start to access AWS services from an Amazon SageMaker notebook we need to ensure that the SageMaker Execution IAM role associated with the notebook instance is allowed permissions to use the specific services like Amazon S3, Amazon Comprehend Medical, DynamoDB and KMS.

We will setup various clients to call most of the APIs like Comprehend Medical, S3, DynamoDB and KMS.

comprehend = boto3.client(service_name='comprehendmedical')
s3 = boto3.client('s3')
s3_resource = boto3.resource('s3')
db = boto3.resource('dynamodb')
kms = boto3.client('kms')
transcribe = boto3.client('transcribe')

Creating an S3 Bucket

Now we come to an important part of the workflow of creating a Python function. These functions are created all along this notebook and others in the series. Think of these functions as reusable APIs for applying all that you learn from AWS Open Data Analytics Notebooks into your own projects by simply importing these functions as a library.

Before we source the open dataset from the Registry, we need to define a destination for our data. We will store our open datasets within Amazon S3. S3 storage in turn is organized in universally unique buckets. These bucket names form special URLs of the format s3://bucket-name which access the contents of the buckets depending on security and access policies applied to the bucket and its contents. Buckets can further contain folders and files. Keys are combination of folder and file name path or just the file name in case it is within the bucket root.

Our first function create_bucket will do just that, it will create a bucket or return as-is if the bucket already exists for your account. If the bucket name is already used by someone else other than you, then this generates an exception caught by the message Bucket <name> could not be created as defined.

AWS services can be accessed using the SDK as we are using right now, using browser based console GUI, or using a Command Line Interface (CLI) over OS terminal or shell. Benefits of using the SDK are reusability of commands across different use cases, handling exceptions with custom actions, and focusing on just the functionality needed by the solution.

def create_bucket(bucket):
    import logging

    try:
        s3.create_bucket(Bucket=bucket)
    except botocore.exceptions.ClientError as e:
        logging.error(e)
        return 'The bucket - "' + bucket + ' could not be created.'
    return 'The bucket - "' + bucket + '" has been created or already exists.'
create_bucket('comprehend-medical-sa-interns')
'The bucket - "comprehend-medical-sa-interns" has been created or already exists.'

Exploring the contents of the Bucket

Now that we have created the buckets, let's explore the contents of the bucket. The name of the Bucket is comprehend-medical-sa-interns and it has a folder named medical_notes which contains the raw clinical notes borrowed from https://www.mtsamples.com/. We can iterate through them using keys or the path names of file objects stored within the bucket. The function allows us to match and return only keys which contain the matching string.

from decimal import *
s3_resource = boto3.resource('s3')

#replace the name of your corresponding dynamodb table between the single quotes below. You can find the name of the table in the outputs tab of the cloudforrmation stack.
ddb_table = 'medical-resume'

notes_dir = 's3://comprehend-medical-sa-interns'
mybucket = s3_resource.Bucket('comprehend-medical-sa-interns')

note_files1=[]
for key in mybucket.objects.all():
    if '.txt' in key.key:
        note_files1.append(key.key)

print(note_files1)
['medical_notes/file.txt', 'medical_notes/file1.txt', 'medical_notes/file10.txt', 'medical_notes/file11.txt', 'medical_notes/file12.txt', 'medical_notes/file2.txt', 'medical_notes/file20.txt', 'medical_notes/file21.txt', 'medical_notes/file3.txt', 'medical_notes/file4.txt', 'medical_notes/file5.txt', 'medical_notes/file6.txt']

Now that we've examined the Bucket, its folders and the contents in them, let's explore the content of a raw clinical note. Please remember to include message = message.decode("utf-8") for getting the display in a readable format.

data = s3.get_object(Bucket='comprehend-medical-sa-interns', Key='medical_notes/file.txt')
message = data['Body'].read()

# You need to decode the message to get it in a readable format.
message = message.decode("utf-8")

print(message)

Amazon Comprehend Medical in action

We'll now comb through the raw clinical notes and extract the various clinical entities and relationships from the notes using the Amazon Comprehend Medical API. These entities will then be inserted into a DynamoDB table.

We apply a filter to restrict the collection of Personal Health Information (PHI) into the DynamoDB table and only collect relevant information from a clinical informatics purpose like symptoms, medications and diagnosis.

dynamoDBResource = boto3.resource('dynamodb', region_name = 'us-east-1')
table = dynamoDBResource.Table(ddb_table)
cm  = boto3.client(service_name='comprehendmedical', use_ssl=True, region_name = 'us-east-1')

    # Open the file and read it into a variable
    print(file.split('/')[-1])
    print(file + ' has been processed.')
    s3_resource.Bucket('comprehend-medical-sa-interns').download_file(file, './Medical-Resume/'+ file.split('/')[-1])
    testtext = open('./Medical-Resume/'+ file.split('/')[-1]).read()

    # Call the detect_entities API to extract the entities
    testresult = cm.detect_entities(Text = testtext)

    # Create a list of entities

                if key == 'Traits':
                    if len(row[key])>0:
                        Trait_List = []
                        for r in row[key]:

Visualizing extracted entities using a Wordcloud

Now we've already processed 12 raw notes, we can expect certain medications/symptoms/diagnosis to repeat. We can use a wordcloud to simply understand the distribution of these labels. A Worldcloud would help us understand the frequency of these labels.

We will be visualizing the clinical entities like symptoms, medication and diagnosis, except the personal information.

# Creating visualizations

from wordcloud import WordCloud
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import seaborn as sns

def medical_resume_wordcloud(text):
    # take relative word frequencies into account, lower max_font_size
    wordcloud = WordCloud(width = 600, height = 300, background_color = 'black', max_words = len(text),
                          max_font_size = 30, relative_scaling = .5, colormap = 'Spectral').generate(text)
    plt.figure(figsize = (20, 10))
    plt.imshow(wordcloud, interpolation = 'bilinear')
    plt.axis("off")
    plt.tight_layout(pad = 0)

Creating a Dataframe containing - diagnosis, symptoms and medications

Let's look at the diagnosis, medications and symptoms lists once before inserting them into a dataframe.

print(df_s)   
['Shortness of breath', 'shortness of breath', 'Shortness of breath', 'abdominal pain', 'bloody stools', 'shortness of breath', 'limited activity level', 'shortness of breath', 'Weakness', 'fatigue', 'tiredness', 'blurred vision', 'hearing impairment', 'Shortness of breath', 'heart murmur', 'Shortness of breath', 'nausea', 'pain', 'Nausea', 'lost about 200 pounds', 'doing well', 'nausea', 'pain', 'malaise', 'normal bowel movement', 'Mental status changes', 'back problems', 'heart problems', 'neck pain', 'nocturia', 'urinary frequency', 'neuropathy', 'decreased sensation', 'errors when keyboarding', 'headaches', 'pain', 'diarrhea', 'bleeding', 'Shortness of breath', 'shortness of breath', 'Shortness of breath', 'abdominal pain', 'bloody stools', 'shortness of breath', 'limited activity level', 'shortness of breath', 'Weakness', 'fatigue', 'tiredness', 'blurred vision', 'hearing impairment', 'Shortness of breath', 'heart murmur', 'Shortness of breath', 'abdominal pain', 'Abdominal pain', 'anorexia', 'passing flatus', 'obstipation symptoms', 'bowel movement', 'hand numbness', 'weakness', 'lightheadedness', 'hand numbness', 'falling spells']
df1 = pd.DataFrame({'Diagnosis': pd.Series(df_d), 'Symptoms': pd.Series(df_s), 'Medications': pd.Series(df_m)})

Exploring the dataset

As we have created the dataframe, let's preview and explore it.

To preview the dataset we'll be using a new function to get an exciting summary of the dataset for previewing purpose. Please remember, you'd need to install pandas-profiling for the same. It's an easy wat to get an intuition of the structure of the data using just one line of code.

While the pandas library provides many extremely useful functions for EDA. However, before being able to apply most of them, you generally have to start with more general functions, such as df.describe( )/df.info( ). Nevertheless, the functionality provided by such functions is limited and more often than not your initial EDA workflow is very similar for each new data set.

Instead of just giving you a single output, pandas-profiling enables its user to quickly generate a very broadly structured HTML file containing most of what you might need to know before diving into a more specific and individual data exploration.

The feature is particularly useful when you have a dataset has a lot of variety in terms of type as well as the missing values.

! pip3 install --user pandas-profiling
import pandas_profiling
df1.profile_report()

Generating a Medical Resume from the raw clinical notes

Let's move on with our journey of creating a Medical Reume now. We've already seen the power of Amazon Comprehend Medical. If we're able to extract relevant entities from an audio clip/text and present it in a more readable format to the doctors, it'll help save their time and also enable them to provide medical consultation to a larger audience.

We will be importing nltk library at the moment so that we can perform a bit of processing on the output data - remove the repetitive symptoms/diagnosis from the notes of the output. This will make the resume focus on the clear priorities.

The porter_stemmer function identifies a word and looks for its "stem" in the English dictionary and it classifies those words into one. This helps us treat the same word written in different styles and sort of normalizing the entire text for processing.

import nltk
from nltk.stem.porter import PorterStemmer
porter_stemmer = PorterStemmer()

Since we're generating the medical profile of the person in the form of a resume for the ease of access and readability, it's also possible for us to have the need for pushing it further for downstream population analytics. However, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) requires us to prevent revealing any information which can be used to trace back the individual. This information must only reside in the conversations between the doctors and the patients.

The cm.detect_phi function lets us detect that information and then we have the option of redacting it or anonymizing/hashing it. This is a mighty important functionality which can be used to detect any form of Personal Information from documents and redact it.

def extract_entities_from_message(message):
    return cm.detect_phi(Text=message)['Entities']

Before generating the resume, let's preview a clinical note in a .txt format which we will be passing as an input to generate the medical resume.

resume_text_input = open('./Medical-Resume/'+ note_files1[0].split('/')[-1]).read()
print(resume_text_input)

This note is well elaborated but contains a lot of information which when done away with will make the job of the doctor far more easier allowing him to spend more time on medically relevant information. We'll be using the comprehend.detect_entities function to extract clinically relevant information from the notes.

We will then apply the PorterStemmer() function to normalize.

entity_list = comprehend.detect_entities(Text = resume_text_input)['Entities']
porter_stemmer = PorterStemmer()

Now it's the time for creating a DynamoDB table. For simplicity purpose, we can treat it as a sample Electronic Health Record.

Now we have created a blank entity list and will be creating a Python class which will contain the attributes of the resume. We need to initialize a few things in the class like name, age, gender and address. The class also consists of a function which builds the resume. The function requires us to pass a couple of parameters - the ID of the patient and the input which will be used to generate the resume.

The class also contains the function which writes the information into the EHR table we had earlier created in DynamoDB.

For another example, let us take an input which is slightly more detailed and elaborate to populate certain fields of the resume better.

resume_text_input = '''Sample Type / Medical Specialty: Cardiovascular / Pulmonary
Sample Name: Abnormal Echocardiogram
Description: Abnormal echocardiogram findings and followup. Shortness of breath, congestive heart failure, and valvular insufficiency. The patient complains of shortness of breath, which is worsening. The patient underwent an echocardiogram, which shows severe mitral regurgitation and also large pleural effusion.

PERSONAL HISTORY: She is a nonsmoker. Does not consume alcohol. No history of recreational drug use.

PAST MEDICAL HISTORY: Basically GI pathology with diverticulitis, colitis, hypothyroidism, arthritis, questionable hypertension, no prior history of coronary artery disease, and heart murmur.

REVIEW OF SYSTEMS
CONSTITUTIONAL: Weakness, fatigue, and tiredness.
HEENT: History of cataract, blurred vision, and hearing impairment.
CARDIOVASCULAR: Shortness of breath and heart murmur. No coronary artery disease.
RESPIRATORY: Shortness of breath. No pneumonia or valley fever.
GASTROINTESTINAL: No nausea, vomiting, hematemesis, or melena.
UROLOGICAL: No frequency or urgency.
MUSCULOSKELETAL: Arthritis and severe muscle weakness.
SKIN: Nonsignificant.
NEUROLOGICAL: No TIA or CVA. No seizure disorder.
ENDOCRINE/HEMATOLOGICAL: As above.

PHYSICAL EXAMINATION
VITAL SIGNS: Pulse of 84, blood pressure of 168/74, afebrile, and respiratory rate 16 per minute.
HEENT/NECK: Head is atraumatic and normocephalic. Neck veins flat. No significant carotid bruits appreciated.
LUNGS: Air entry bilaterally fair. No obvious rales or wheezes.
HEART: PMI displaced. S1, S2 with systolic murmur at the precordium, grade 2/6.
ABDOMEN: Soft and nontender.
EXTREMITIES: Chronic skin changes. Feeble pulses distally. No clubbing or cyanosis.

DIAGNOSTIC DATA: EKG: Normal sinus rhythm. No acute ST-T changes.

IMPRESSION:
1. The patient admitted for gastrointestinal pathology, under working treatment.
2. History of prior heart murmur with echocardiogram findings as above. Basically revealed normal left ventricular function with left atrial enlargement, large pleural effusion, and severe mitral regurgitation and tricuspid regurgitation.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. From cardiac standpoint, conservative treatment. Possibility of a transesophageal echocardiogram to assess valvular insufficiency adequately well discussed extensively.
2. After extensive discussion, given her age 86, limited activity level, and no intention of undergoing any treatment in this regard from a surgical standpoint, the patient does not wish to proceed with a transesophageal echocardiogram.
3. Based on the above findings, we will treat her medically with ACE inhibitors and diuretics and see how she fares. She has a normal LV function.'''

Now we can observe that the resume is very elaborate and has a lot of fields with entries against them. We have also saved these to the EHR table which we had created in DynamoDB.

Generating resumes from audio files

Now that we have processed text inputs and have turned them into a resume, it's time for us to take a look at handling audio clips.

The workflow would look something like this -
1) Add an audio clip to the S3 bucket.
2) Process the audio clip through Amazon Transcribe to get its transcript.
3) Pass on the transcript further to generate the Medical Resume.

We have a sample audio clip added to the S3 bucket. We can play it within this Sagemaker Notebook using the Audio function.

bucket = 'comprehend-medical-sa-interns'
key = 'Sample.mp3'
audio_obj = s3.get_object(Bucket=bucket, Key=key)
audio = audio_obj["Body"].read()
Audio(audio)

Now we will be creating a job in the Amazon Transcription (which is our Speech Recognition tool). This job will help us get the transcript of the audio file we just played.

Now is the time for us to pass on the text input from the audio into Comprehend Medical to generate a medical resume of the same.

medical_text = read_transcribe_output(output_bucket, job_name + '.json')
my_resume = Resume(3,medical_text)
