Typical archival systems are optimized for storage, not interpretability and analysis. But MIMIC-IV, a contemporary electronic health record dataset covering a decade of admissions between 2008 and 2019, created as a result of a collaboration between Boston-based Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Cambridge-based Massachusetts Institute of Technology, could be the answer.
MIMIC-IV collects information such as patient measurements, orders, diagnoses, procedures, treatments and deidentified free-text clinical notes from the EHR, which in turn is able to support a wide array of research studies and educational material.
Researchers suggest that this kind of open-source database could help to reduce barriers to conducting clinical research.
