abstract="Current natural language processing techniques for recognition of concepts in the electronic medical record have been insufficient to allow their broad use for coding information automatically. We have undertaken a preliminary investigation into the use of machine learning methods to recognize procedure codes from emergency room dictations for a trauma registry. Our preliminary results indicate moderate success, and we believe future enhancements with additional learning techniques and selected natural language processing approaches will be fruitful.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
