System and method to regularize cancer treatment data for systematic recording
Implementations provide a method to consolidate data records of regimens for treating oncology conditions. The method includes: accessing data records each encoding multi-tier data characteristics of a regimen for treating a particular oncology condition; receiving a first data record encoding a first regimen specific to a first healthcare provider institution; parsing the first data record according to a hierarchy of the encoded multi-tier data characteristics; distributing a respective weight to each of the encoded data characteristics to account for the potentially missing data characteristic; comparing data characteristics of the first data record with data characteristics from the data records by applying the respective weight to each data characteristic at a particular tier of the hierarchy such that a respective compound score is generated for each data record; and based on the compound scores for all data records, determining a prevailing data record of regimen as matching the first data record.
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
parsing a data record according to a hierarchy of a set of multi-tier data characteristics, wherein:
the hierarchy characterizes a set of regimens related to treating an oncology condition, and
the data record is from a first healthcare provider institution and encodes a first regimen specific to the first healthcare provider institution;
determining, based on parsing the data record, whether the first regimen has been previously mapped;
in response to determining that the first regimen has been previously mapped, determining that the first regimen corresponds to a second regimen of a prevailing data record stored at a central server; and
providing the second regimen as a matching regiment for the first regimen.
2. The computer-implemented method of claim 1 , further comprising:
benchmarking the first regimen based on an efficacy of the second regimen.
3. The computer-implemented method of claim 2 , further comprising:
recording treatment data during a course of the first regimen; and
comparing the treatment data during the course of the first regimen with the prevailing data record.
4. The computer-implemented method of claim 3 , further comprising:
based on comparing the treatment data with the prevailing data record, refining a set of weights for the set of multi-tier data characteristics.
5. A computer-implemented method comprising:
parsing a data record according to a hierarchy of a set of multi-tier data characteristics, wherein:
the hierarchy characterizes a set of regimens related to treating an oncology condition, and
the data record is from a first healthcare provider institution and encodes a first regimen specific to the first healthcare provider institution;
determining, based on parsing the data record, that the first regimen has not been previously mapped; and
in response to determining that the first regimen has not been previously mapped, obtaining a first set of compound scores for the data record based on applying a set of weights to the set of multi-tier data characteristics according to the hierarchy.
6. The computer-implemented method of claim 5 , further comprising:
identifying a prevailing data record from a database of data records stored at a central server.
7. The computer-implemented method of claim 6 , wherein identifying the prevailing data record comprises:
obtaining a second set of compound scores for the prevailing data record based on applying the set of weights to the set of multi-tier data characteristics according to the hierarchy.
8. The computer-implemented method of claim 7 , wherein obtaining a second set of compound scores comprises:
in response to determining that a data characteristic at a tier of the hierarchy is absent from the data record, flagging the data characteristic as missing;
applying the set of weights to the set of multi-tier data characteristics according to the hierarchy to account for the data characteristic flagged as missing, wherein each weight in the set of weights is applied to a corresponding data characteristic of the set of multi-tier data characteristics; and
comparing the first set of compound scores for a first set of data characteristics of the data record with the second set of compound scores for a second set of data characteristics from the prevailing data record to indicate a degree of match.
9. The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , wherein:
the degree of match between the data record and the prevailing data record is above a predetermined threshold.
10. A computer system comprising one or more processors, wherein the one or more processors are configured to perform operations of:
parsing a data record according to a hierarchy of a set of multi-tier data characteristics, wherein:
the hierarchy characterizes a set of regimens related to treating an oncology condition, and
the data record is from a first healthcare provider institution and encodes a first regimen specific to the first healthcare provider institution;
determining, based on parsing the data record, whether the first regimen has been previously mapped;
in response to determining that the first regimen has been previously mapped, determining that the first regimen corresponds to a second regimen of a prevailing data record stored at a central server; and
providing the second regimen as a matching regimen for the first regimen.
11. The computer system of claim 10 , wherein the operations further comprise:
benchmarking the first regimen based on an efficacy of the second regimen.
12. The computer system of claim 11 , wherein the operations further comprise:
recording treatment data during a course of the first regimen; and
comparing the treatment data during the course of the first regimen with the prevailing data record.
13. The computer system of claim 12 , wherein the operations further comprise:
based on comparing the treatment data with the prevailing data record, refining a set of weights for the set of multi-tier data characteristics.
14. A computer system comprising one or more processors, wherein the one or more processors are configured to perform operations of:
parsing a data record according to a hierarchy of a set of multi-tier data characteristics, wherein:
the hierarchy characterizes a set of regimens related to treating an oncology condition, and
the data record is from a first healthcare provider institution and encodes a first regimen specific to the first healthcare provider institution;
determining, based on parsing the data record, that the first regimen has not been previously mapped; and
in response to determining that the first regimen has not been previously mapped, obtaining a first set of compound scores for the data record based on applying a set of weights to the set of multi-tier data characteristics according to the hierarchy.
15. The computer system of claim 14 , wherein the operations further comprise:
identifying a prevailing data record from a database of data records stored at a central server.
16. The computer system of claim 15 , wherein identifying the prevailing data record comprises:
obtaining a second set of compound scores for the prevailing data record based on applying the set of weights to the set of multi-tier data characteristics according to the hierarchy.
17. The computer system of claim 16 , wherein the operations further comprise:
in response to determining that a data characteristic at a tier of the hierarchy is absent from the data record, flagging the data characteristic as missing;
applying the set of weights to the set of multi-tier data characteristics according to the hierarchy to account for the data characteristic flagged as missing, wherein each weight in the set of weights is applied to a corresponding data characteristic of the set of multi-tier data characteristics; and
comparing the first set of compound scores for a first set of data characteristics of the data record with the second set of compound scores for a second set of data characteristics from the prevailing data record to indicate a degree of match.
18. The computer system of claim 17 , wherein:
the degree of match between the data record and the prevailing data record is above a predetermined threshold.
