CKD

The eds.CKD pipeline component extracts mentions of CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease). It will notably match:

  • Mentions of various diseases (see below)
  • Kidney transplantation
  • Chronic dialysis
  • Renal failure from stage 3 to 5. The stage is extracted by trying 3 methods:
    • Extracting the mentioned stage directly ("IRC stade IV")
    • Extracting the severity directly ("IRC terminale")
    • Extracting the mentioned GFR (DFG in french) ("IRC avec DFG estimé à 30 mL/min/1,73m2)")

Extensions

On each span span that match, the following attributes are available:

  • span._.detailed_status: set to "PRESENT"
  • span._.assigned: dictionary with the following keys, if relevant:
    • stage: mentioned renal failure stage
    • status: mentioned renal failure severity (e.g. modérée, sévère, terminale, etc.)
    • dfg: mentioned DFG

Examples

import edsnlp, edsnlp.pipes as eds

nlp = edsnlp.blank("eds")
nlp.add_pipe(eds.sentences())
nlp.add_pipe(
    eds.normalizer(
        accents=True,
        lowercase=True,
        quotes=True,
        spaces=True,
        pollution=dict(
            information=True,
            bars=True,
            biology=True,
            doctors=True,
            web=True,
            coding=True,
            footer=True,
        ),
    ),
)
nlp.add_pipe(eds.ckd())

Below are a few examples:

text = "Patient atteint d'une glomérulopathie."
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["ckd"]

spans
# Out: [glomérulopathie]
text = "Patient atteint d'une tubulopathie aigüe."
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["ckd"]

spans
# Out: []
text = "Patient transplanté rénal"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["ckd"]

spans
# Out: [transplanté rénal]
text = "Présence d'une insuffisance rénale aigüe sur chronique"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["ckd"]

spans
# Out: [insuffisance rénale aigüe sur chronique]
text = "Le patient a été dialysé"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["ckd"]

spans
# Out: []
text = "Le patient est dialysé chaque lundi"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["ckd"]

spans
# Out: [dialysé chaque lundi]

span = spans[0]

span._.assigned
# Out: {'chronic': [lundi]}
text = "Présence d'une IRC"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["ckd"]

spans
# Out: []
text = "Présence d'une IRC sévère"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["ckd"]

spans
# Out: [IRC sévère]

span = spans[0]

span._.assigned
# Out: {'status': sévère}
text = "Présence d'une IRC au stade IV"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["ckd"]

spans
# Out: [IRC au stade IV]

span = spans[0]

span._.assigned
# Out: {'stage': IV}
text = "Présence d'une IRC avec DFG à 30"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["ckd"]

spans
# Out: [IRC avec DFG à 30]

span = spans[0]

span._.assigned
# Out: {'dfg': 30}
text = "Présence d'une maladie rénale avec DFG à 110"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["ckd"]

spans
