Estimating the pertussis burden in adolescents and adults in the United States between 2007 and 2019

Publisher: Taylor & Francis OnlineAuthors: D. Macina, S. Mathur, M. Dvaretskaya, S. Ekhtiari, P. Hayat, M. Montmerle, C.Daluwatte View publication Objectives We developed a machine learning algorithm to identify undiagnosed pertussis episodes in adolescent and adult patients with reported acute respiratory disease (ARD) using clinician notes in an electronic healthcare record (EHR) database. Here, we utilized the algorithm to […]

Development of an algorithm for finding pertussis episodes in a population-based electronic health record database

Publisher: Taylor & Francis OnlineAuthors: C. Daluwatte, M. Dvaretskaya, S. Ekhtiari, P. Hayat, M. Montmerle, S. Mathur, D. Macina View publication Background While tetanus-diphtheria-acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccines for adolescents and adults were licensed in 2005 and immunization strategies proposed, the burden of pertussis in this population remains under-recognized mainly due to atypical disease presentation, undermining efforts to optimize protection […]
