- text: Durante a cirurgia ortopédica para corrigir a fratura no tornozelo, os sinais vitais do utente, incluindo a pressão arterial, com leitura de 120/87 mmHg e a frequência cardíaca, de 80 batimentos por minuto, foram monitorizados. Após a cirurgia o utente apresentava dor intensa no local e inchaço no tornozelo, mas os resultados da radiografia revelaram uma recuperação satisfatória. Foi prescrito ibuprofeno 600mg de 8 em 8 horas durante 3 dias.

# MediAlbertina
The first publicly available medical language model trained with real European Portuguese data.
MediAlbertina is a family of encoders from the Bert family, DeBERTaV2-based, resulting from the continuation of the pre-training of [PORTULAN's Albertina](https://huggingface.co/PORTULAN) models with Electronic Medical Records shared by Portugal's largest public hospital.
Like its antecessors, MediAlbertina models are distributed under the [MIT license](https://huggingface.co/portugueseNLP/medialbertina_pt-pt_900m_NER/blob/main/LICENSE).
# Model Description
**MediAlbertina PT-PT 900M NER** was created through fine-tuning of [MediAlbertina PT-PT 900M](https://huggingface.co/portugueseNLP/medialbertina_pt-pt_900m) on real European Portuguese EMRs that have been hand-annotated for the following entities:
- **Diagnostico (D)**: All types of diseases and conditions following the ICD-10-CM guidelines.
- **Sintoma (S)**: Any complaints or evidence from healthcare professionals indicating that a patient is experiencing a medical condition.
- **Medicamento (M)**: Something that is administrated to the patient (through any route), including drugs, specific food/drink, vitamins, or blood for transfusion.
- **Dosagem (D)**: Dosage and frequency of medication administration.
- **ProcedimentoMedico (PM)**: Anything healthcare professionals do related to patients, including exams, moving patients, administering something, or even surgeries.
- **SinalVital (SV)**: Quantifiable indicators in a patient that can be measured, always associated with a specific result. Examples include cholesterol levels, diuresis, weight, or glycaemia.
- **Resultado (R)**: Results can be associated with Medical Procedures and Vital Signs. It can be a numerical value if something was measured (e.g., the value associated with blood pressure) or a descriptor to indicate the result (e.g., positive/negative, functional).
- **Progresso (P)**: Describes the progress of patient’s condition. Typically, it includes verbs like improving, evolving, or regressing and mentions to patient’s stability.
**MediAlbertina PT-PT 900M NER** achieved superior results to the same adaptation made on a non-medical Portuguese language model, demonstrating the effectiveness of this domain adaptation, and its potential for medical AI in Portugal.

## Data
**MediAlbertina PT-PT 900M NER** was fine-tuned on about 10k hand-annotated medical entities from about 4k fully anonymized medical sentences from Portugal's largest public hospital. This data was acquired under the framework of the [FCT project DSAIPA/AI/0122/2020 AIMHealth-Mobile Applications Based on Artificial Intelligence](https://ciencia.iscte-iul.pt/projects/aplicacoes-moveis-baseadas-em-inteligencia-artificial-para-resposta-de-saude-publica/1567).
## How to use
```Python
from transformers import pipeline
ner_pipeline = pipeline('ner', model='portugueseNLP/medialbertina_pt-pt_900m_NER', aggregation_strategy='average')
sentence = 'Durante o procedimento endoscópico, foram encontrados pólipos no cólon do paciente.'
entities = ner_pipeline(sentence)
for entity in entities:
print(f"{entity['entity_group']} - {sentence[entity['start']:entity['end']]}")
```
