Congestive heart failure

The eds.congestive_heart_failure pipeline component extracts mentions of congestive heart failure. It will notably match:

  • Mentions of various diseases (see below)
  • Heart transplantation
  • AF (Atrial Fibrillation)
  • Pacemaker

nlp = edsnlp.blank("eds")
nlp.add_pipe("eds.sentences")
nlp.add_pipe(
    "eds.normalizer",
    config=dict(
        accents=True,

)
nlp.add_pipe(f"eds.congestive_heart_failure")

Below are a few examples:

text = "Présence d'un oedème pulmonaire"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["congestive_heart_failure"]

spans
# Out: [oedème pulmonaire]
text = "Le patient est équipé d'un pace-maker"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["congestive_heart_failure"]

spans
# Out: [pace-maker]
text = "Un cardiopathie non décompensée"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["congestive_heart_failure"]

spans
# Out: []
text = "Insuffisance cardiaque"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["congestive_heart_failure"]

spans
# Out: [Insuffisance cardiaque]
text = "Insuffisance cardiaque minime"
doc = nlp(text)
spans = doc.spans["congestive_heart_failure"]

spans
# Out: []
