PyHealth is a comprehensive deep learning toolkit for supporting clinical predictive modeling, which is designed for both ML researchers and medical practitioners. We can make your healthcare AI applications easier to deploy and more flexible and customizable. [Tutorials]
[News!] We are continueously implemeting good papers and benchmarks into PyHealth, checkout the [planned List]. Welcome to pick one from the list and send us a PR or add more influential and new papers into the plan list.
- You could install from PyPi:
pip install pyhealth- or from github source:
pip install .pyhealth provides these functionalities (we are still enriching some modules):
You can use the following functions independently:
- Dataset:
MIMIC-III,MIMIC-IV,eICU,OMOP-CDM,customized EHR datasets, etc. - Tasks:
diagnosis-based drug recommendation,patient hospitalization and mortality prediction,length stay forecasting, etc. - ML models:
CNN,LSTM,GRU,LSTM,RETAIN,SafeDrug,Deepr, etc.
Building a healthcare AI pipeline can be as short as 10 lines of code in PyHealth.
All healthcare tasks in our package follow a five-stage pipeline:
pyhealth.datasets provides a clean structure for the dataset, independent from the tasks. We support MIMIC-III, MIMIC-IV and eICU, etc. The output (mimic3base) is a multi-level dictionary structure (see illustration below).
from pyhealth.datasets import MIMIC3Dataset
mimic3base = MIMIC3Dataset(
# root directory of the dataset
root="https://storage.googleapis.com/pyhealth/Synthetic_MIMIC-III/",
# raw CSV table name
tables=["DIAGNOSES_ICD", "PROCEDURES_ICD", "PRESCRIPTIONS"],
# map all NDC codes to CCS codes in these tables
code_mapping={"NDC": "CCSCM"},
)
pyhealth.tasks defines how to process each patient's data into a set of samples for the tasks. In the package, we provide several task examples, such as drug recommendation and length of stay prediction. It is easy to customize your own tasks following our template.
from pyhealth.tasks import readmission_prediction_mimic3_fn
mimic3sample = mimic3base.set_task(task_fn=readmission_prediction_mimic3_fn) # use default task
mimic3sample.samples[0] # show the information of the first sample

- For code ontology lookup within one medical coding system (e.g., name, category, sub-concept);
