Large language model-based system identifies cardiac event data in cancer patients' electronic health records

Patients with breast and lung cancer are at increased risk of cardiotoxicity, or heart-related damage caused by cancer treatments, because of the proximity of the heart, lungs and breasts. Cardiotoxicity increases the risk of heart attacks, heart failure and other cardiac conditions. Looking for evidence of cardiac disease in these patients requires reading through hundreds of patients' health records, which is often too time-consuming to be practical.
