Patients (Demographics, Medical History, Behavior)

Main content start

Description:

This database contains AI-simulated patients created within the Clinical Mind AI platform. Each row represents one simulated patient and includes demographic information, medical history data, behavioral characteristics, and metadata about creation and modification.

Variables:

createdAt — Date and time when the simulated patient was first created on the platform.

updatedAt — Date and time of the most recent update to the simulated patient record.

createdBy — Unique identifier of the user who originally created the simulated patient. To obtain the associated user details (e.g., name or role), this variable must be joined with the Users database.

updatedBy — Unique identifier of the user who last updated the simulated patient record. To obtain the associated user details (e.g., name or role), this variable must be joined with the Users database.

id — Unique system-generated identifier for the simulated patient, serving as the primary key for data integration and cross-referencing.

medicalField — Healthcare domain or medical specialty to which the simulated patient belongs (e.g., Cardiology, Neurology, Nutritional assessment).

purposeOfCase — Intended educational purpose or use of the simulated patient (e.g., diagnostic reasoning, communication skills), written by the creator of the patient.

fullName — Display name of the simulated patient, written by the creator of the patient.

age — Age of the simulated patient as specified by the creator of the patient.

gender — Gender identity of the simulated patient, indicated by the creator of the patient.

ethnicity — Ethnic background of the simulated patient, indicated by the creator of the patient.

language — Primary language spoken by the simulated patient, indicated by the creator of the patient.

location — Geographic location or address of the patient (e.g., Palo Alto, California), indicated by the creator of the patient.

scale — Unit system (imperial or metric) used for recording the simulated patient’s height and weight. This field remains in the database for compatibility with previously created patients but is no longer active in the current version of the platform.

weight — Weight of the simulated patient, entered by the creator of the patient. This variable is no longer available in the current version of the platform, as physical examination features now capture this information.

height — Height of the simulated patient, entered by the creator of the patient. This variable is no longer available in the current version of the platform, as physical examination features now capture this information.

somatotype — Body type classification (e.g., ectomorphic, mesomorphic, endomorphic), indicated by the creator of the patient.

importantPhysicalDetails — Distinctive physical features indicated by the creator of the patient to guide image generation of the patient’s face.

avatar — URL to the avatar image of the simulated patient. This visual representation was selected by the creator of the patient and generated with AI.

chiefComplaint — Primary symptom or reason for consultation as presented by the simulated patient. Written by the creator of the patient.

currentMedicalHistory — Summary of the simulated patient’s present illness and relevant context, written by the creator of the patient.

patientHealthBelief — Description of the simulated patient’s understanding or beliefs about their health condition, written by the creator of the patient.

patientPrimaryConcern — Statement of what the simulated patient perceives as their main problem or priority, written by the creator of the patient.

pastMedicalHistory — Record of past medical conditions and treatments, written by the creator of the patient.

obGynHistory — Obstetric and gynecologic history when applicable, written by the creator of the patient.

medication — Current medications taken by the simulated patient, written by the creator of the patient.

allergies — Documented allergies or adverse reactions, written by the creator of the patient.

exposureHistory — History of relevant exposures (e.g., occupational, environmental, infectious), written by the creator of the case.

preventativeHealthcare — Preventive measures undertaken (e.g., screenings, check-ups), written by the creator of the patient.

immunizations — Record of vaccines received, written by the creator of the patient.

previousImportantTests — Results or records of significant past diagnostic tests, written by the creator of the patient.

familyHistory — Relevant health conditions among family members, written by the creator of the patient.

socialHistory — Social background and living circumstances, written by the creator of the patient.

habits — Lifestyle habits (e.g., smoking, alcohol use, exercise) relevant to the case, written by the creator of the patient.

previousConsultations — Records of prior medical consultations added to the simulated patient’s electronic medical record, written by the creator of the patient.

previousLabs — Records of previous laboratory results added to the simulated patient’s electronic medical record, written by the creator of the patient.

previousMedications — Records of previously prescribed medications added to the simulated patient’s electronic medical record, written by the creator of the patient.

previousImages — Records of prior imaging studies (e.g., X-ray, MRI) added to the simulated patient’s electronic medical record, written by the creator of the patient.

previousProcedures — Records of prior medical or surgical procedures added to the simulated patient’s electronic medical record, written by the creator of the patient.

previousCardiacStudies — Records of past cardiac tests (e.g., ECG, echocardiogram) added to the simulated patient’s electronic medical record, written by the creator of the patient.

behavior — General behavior traits of the simulated patient during interaction, selected by the creator of the patient.

responsiveness — Level of responsiveness during conversation, selected by the creator of the patient.

otherBehavior — Additional behavioral characteristics not captured by other variables, written by the creator of the patient.

isEditable — Boolean value indicating whether the simulated patient can be modified (TRUE) or is locked (FALSE). This variable is utilized by the backend to determine if a patient record is currently associated with a clinical case activity or if it has been published to a library. If isEditable is set to true, any edits made by an instructor to that patient record will result in the creation of a new copy of the patient for the instructor. This mechanism ensures that published copies or patient records engaged in active clinical activities remain unchanged, preserving data integrity.

isActive — Boolean value indicating whether the simulated patient is currently active and visible on the platform (TRUE) or archived (FALSE). It is reserved for future functionality to allow instructors to delete or archive simulated patients. Its purpose will be to indicate the active status of a patient record.

originalPatientId — Identifier of the first version of the simulated patient from which this record was duplicated or derived. This allows the system to know the original creator of the patient and keep the authorship.

lastPatientId — Identifier of the most recent version if the simulated patient has been edited or duplicated.

originallyById — Identifier of the user who originally authored the patient. To obtain user details, this variable must be joined with the Users database. If the original author belongs to another institution, institutional admins will not be able to join the local database to obtain the user details.

lastModifiedById — Identifier of the user who most recently modified the patient. To obtain user details, this variable must be joined with the Users database.

institution — Name of the institution that owns the simulated patient record.

country — Country in which the institution is located.

patientCreator — Display name of the user who created this AI-simulated patient record. The creator may have developed the patient originally or copied it from the Clinical Mind AI library.
