Polypharmacy Status[source]

The eds.polypharmacy_status pipeline component extracts mentions of polymedication. It is best used in conjuction with the eds.drugs components, since those explicit mentions are relatively rare.

# fmt: off
from ..utils import normalize_space_characters

altered = dict(
    source="altered",
    regex=[
        "iatrogenie",
        "polymediqu",
        "polymedication",
    ],
    regex_attr="NORM",
)
other = dict(
    source="other",
    regex=[
        r"conciliation[\s]+medicament",
    ],
    regex_attr="NORM",
)

default_patterns = normalize_space_characters([altered, other])

# fmt: on

Extensions

On each span span that match, the following attribute is available:

• span._.polypharmacy_status: set to None.

It will specify the severity of the mention regarding the polymedication of the patient.

Possible values are:

• healthy : this span suggests the patient is well regarding that domain.
• altered_nondescript : this span suggests the patient is not well, but it is not yet possible to ascertain the degree of alteration.
• altered_mild : this span suggests a light alteration regarding this domain.
• altered_severe : this span suggests a severe alteration regarding this domain.
• other : this span is not indicative of the level of alteration regarding this domain. Still, it hints that this domain has been evaluated.
