Identify key performance indicators (kpis) and build a logical data model that separates master data from transactional data, guiding what to analyze before loading databases.
Trace the patient journey, identify source systems, extract data, transform and load it, build logical and physical models, and generate insights with Tableau, Power BI, R, or Python.
Discover how artificial, convolutional, graphical, and recurrent neural networks apply to healthcare, including x-ray classification with Dex-net and ResNet, and drug discovery.
Explore zero shot prompts by providing instructions, optional context, and a task with an expected output format, through a healthcare example diagnosing conditions from symptoms.
Explore how few-shot prompts shape model responses by providing multiple input-output examples, comparing zero-shot and one-shot prompts, and structuring outputs for medical diagnoses and triage.
Learn chain of thought prompting and step-by-step reasoning to diagnose, assess stroke risk in atrial fibrillation, and guide anticoagulant treatment options, with physician validation.
Apply guardrails to filter PII and protect privacy under data regulations. See prompts switch to generic health insurance questions and validate prompts without exposing personal claim details.
Explore the structure of ICD-10 codes, including digits, decimal placement, laterality, and encounter details. See how tools like Google Health API and AWS Comprehend Medical extract codes via prompt engineering.
Learn how Loinc codes standardize lab terms and HL7 observations, map systolic blood pressure and other tests, and validate codes via Loinc websites and the Google Health API.
Explore SNOMED CT as a comprehensive clinical terminology, contrast it with ICD ten, and learn to craft structured prompts to extract SNOMED concepts from clinical notes using AWS Comprehend.
Explore ICD-10 procedure codes and how they differ from diagnosis codes. Seven-digit codes encode section, body system, root operation, body part, approach, device, and qualifier, with example 0SRD0JZ.
Create an AWS transcribe job to generate a soap note from a medical recording, using S3 bucket setup in region us-east-1 with an IAM role and Bedrock LLM.
Learn to craft a structured soap note prompt for clinical documentation, defining the role of a clinical documentation specialist and the subjective, objective, assessment, and plan components with guardrails.
Welcome to “Healthcare IT Decoded – Applications of Prompt Engineering,” a course designed for healthcare professionals, technologists, and innovators looking to bridge the gap between real-world healthcare operations and the transformative power of AI using Prompting techniques.
