简要总结
The present study is a non-interventional retrospective chart review study assessing the prevalence of PNH-clones in patients with PNH risk-factors aged ≥14 years and treated at our hospital. The objective of this study is to develop a PNH screening tool on the hospital Electronic Health Record (EHR) system. An algorithm defining PNH risk groups is developed.
详细描述
Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH) is a life-threatening hematological disorder, but with an effective therapy. Prevalence is estimated between 1-5 per million people, often manifested by cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, neurological or haematological symptoms. Referral is therefore typically to several specialists, resulting in PNH underdiagnosis.
This chart review study consists primarily of developing an algorithm to identify a high-risk cohort of potential PNH patients who need treatment from all registered patients, with maximum ability to find relevant cases. Secondly, this cohort will be manually reviewed by clinicians for final screening. The challenge hence is maximizing the ability to find all relevant PNH patients yet limiting the number to ensure manual review is possible.

PNH risk factors translation into query codes that can be interpreted by a computer system for analysis
时间窗: 2022
Three main PNH risk sub-cohorts were constructed, representing patients exhibiting PNH risk factors such as hemolytic anemia (group 1), bone marrow dysfunction (group 2) and thrombosis (group 3). To build these sub-cohorts, queries were created using a combination of structured and unstructured electronic health record (EHR) data, including lab results, diagnoses, medication, questionnaire data, text from medical and radiology reports, notes, and Internation Classification Codes (ICD-10). These sub-cohorts were validated by two hematologists who reviewed randomly selected patients, resulting in several iterations and query optimizations.

A computational algorithm was employed for a retrospective EHR analysis, to identify high-risk cohorts of potential PNH patients who need treatment from all registered patients, with maximum ability to find relevant cases. Three main PNH risk sub-cohorts were constructed, representing patients exhibiting PNH risk factors such as hemolytic anemia (group 1), bone marrow dysfunction (group 2) and thrombosis (group 3). These sub-cohorts were validated by two hematologists who reviewed randomly selected patients, resulting in several iterations and query optimizations. Sub-cohorts were subsequently merged and refined into high risk cohorts that undergo further analysis and manual review. Two hematologists independently reviewed and rated medical records to achieve a manual risk stratification of the high risk cohorts.
