Patients (Previous Records, Physical Examination, Medical Tests)
Description:
This dataset stores patient-linked entries created in Clinical Mind AI: previous records (e.g., consultations, labs, imaging, procedures, medications), physical-examination findings, and medical tests. It is in long format: each row is one entry of those types for a given patient, so a single patient can appear on multiple rows. Use patientId to join back to the Patients (Demographics, Medical History, and Behavior) dataset for demographics and authorship metadata. Fields are type-specific: medicationName/dosage/adminMethod/medsDuration (medication entries); examinationType/examinationTitle/examinationSubCategory (physical exam); testType/testTitle/testSubCategory/specifications (tests).
Variables:
entityType — High-level category of the entry associated with the simulated patient (e.g., previous_record, physical_examination, medical_test). Used to determine which subfields are applicable.
id — Unique system-generated identifier for this record.
patientId — Identifier of the simulated patient to which this record belongs. Use this variable to join with the Patients (Demographics, Medical History, and Behavior) database.
patientName — Display name of the associated simulated patient at the time the record was created; provided for convenience in browsing and reports. Use patientId for canonical linkage (patientName may not update if the patient’s name changes later).
institution — Name of the institution in which the simulated patient record was created.
country — Country in which the institution is located.
content — Text entry of the record, if applicable (e.g., note for a previous consultation, summary of an examination finding, or context for a test). Stored as rich text and may contain HTML tags and inline styles; preserve the HTML if you plan to render this content on a webpage. Written by the creator of the patient or the instructor authoring the entry.
media — References to files attached to the entry (e.g., images, PDFs, video). Exported as a JSON-like array (e.g., [{"url": "...", "type": "image", "name": "..."}]); individual items include a URL that can be opened as a link. When no files are attached, this may be an empty array (“[]”).
createdAt — Date and time when this record entry was first created on the platform.
updatedAt — Date and time of the most recent update to this record entry.
recordType — Specific subtype within entityType, primarily used for previous_record entries (e.g., visit, lab, image, cardiac_studies). May be empty for physical_examination or medical_test rows.
currentDuration — Numeric value indicating how long ago this entry occurred in the patient’s medical record (relative to now), when applicable. For example, if an imaging study happened 3 weeks ago, currentDuration = 3.
currentDurationType — Unit corresponding to currentDuration (e.g., Minutes, Hours, Days, Weeks, Months, Years).
medicationName — Name of the medication when the entry represents a medication-related record (e.g., “Amoxicillin”).
dosage — Dose and schedule details for a medication entry (e.g., “500 mg twice daily”).
adminMethod — Route or method of administration for a medication entry (e.g., oral, IV, IM, subcutaneous, inhaled).
medsDuration — Duration or course length for a medication entry (e.g., “7 days,” “until symptoms resolve”).
examinationType — Category of the physical examination associated with the entry (e.g., General, Cardiovascular, Respiratory, Abdominal, Neurologic, Skin). For physical examination entries, this specifies the exam section that the accompanying content (rich text; may include HTML and links) describes. Selected by the creator.
examinationTitle — Specific exam item or section title within the chosen examinationType (e.g., “Vital signs,” “Heart sounds,” “Cranial nerves”). For physical examination entries, this serves as the heading for the accompanying content (rich text; may include HTML and links).
examinationSubCategory — Sub-classification or method within the examinationType (e.g., “Inspection,” “Palpation,” “Percussion,” “Auscultation,” “Reflexes”). For physical examination entries, this further qualifies the accompanying content (rich text; may include HTML and links).
testType — Category of the medical test (e.g., Laboratory, Imaging, Cardiac, Microbiology, Pathology, Point-of-care). Populated only for medical test entries and selected by the creator. Selected by the creator.
testTitle — Name of the specific test or study (e.g., “Complete Blood Count,” “Chest CT,” “12-lead ECG,” “Troponin I”). Populated only for medical test entries.
testSubCategory — Sub-classification within the testType (e.g., “Blood chemistry,” “Hematology,” “MRI brain,” “Echocardiography”). Optional filter/grouping field for medical test entries.
specifications — Test-specific parameters or protocols for some tests (e.g., CT: “without contrast”; MRI: “T1/T2/FLAIR”; Microbiology: “culture from wound swab; aerobic; Gram stain method”; Pathology: “biopsy site: left forearm”). Written by the creator.
