To develop and validate an electronic health record algorithm integrating diagnostic codes, laboratory values, and medications to accurately identify patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.
Designed an electronic health record phenotyping algorithm combining systemic lupus erythematosus ICD-9 codes with medication records and laboratory findings.
Validated algorithm accuracy against patient records within electronic health record systems.
Successfully established the first validated electronic health record algorithm for systemic lupus erythematosus that incorporates multidimensional clinical data.
Achieved accurate patient identification by integrating laboratory measurements and prescribed medications alongside ICD-9 diagnostic codes.

Implication

Validation study demonstrates accurate identification of systemic lupus erythematosus in electronic health records, highlighting improved computational phenotyping.

Abstract
