“…The performance of LLMs is massively increasing month to month 36 and we expect that future LLMs will further improve the performance. Many proof-of-concept studies for LLMs in medicine only show a semiquantitative analysisin contrast, we employ a rigorous, quantitative, pre-specified analysis comparing the models' outputs to a ground truth obtained by three blinded observers.…”

Background and AimsMost clinical information is encoded as text, but extracting quantitative information from text is challenging. Large Language Models (LLMs) have emerged as powerful tools for natural language processing and can parse clinical text. However, many LLMs including ChatGPT reside in remote data centers, which disqualifies them from processing personal healthcare data. We present an open-source pipeline using the local LLM “Llama 2” for extracting quantitative information from clinical text and evaluate its use to detect clinical features of decompensated liver cirrhosis.MethodsWe tasked the LLM to identify five key clinical features of decompensated liver cirrhosis in a zero- and one-shot way without any model training. Our specific objective was to identify abdominal pain, shortness of breath, confusion, liver cirrhosis, and ascites from 500 patient medical histories from the MIMIC IV dataset. We compared LLMs with three different sizes and a variety of pre-specified prompt engineering approaches. Model predictions were compared against the ground truth provided by the consent of three blinded medical experts.ResultsOur open-source pipeline yielded in highly accurate extraction of quantitative features from medical free text. Clinical features which were explicitly mentioned in the source text, such as liver cirrhosis and ascites, were detected with a sensitivity of 100% and 95% and a specificity of 96% and 95%, respectively from the 70 billion parameter model. Other clinical features, which are often paraphrased in a variety of ways, such as the presence of confusion, were detected only with a sensitivity of 76% and a specificity of 94%. Abdominal pain was detected with a sensitivity of 84% and a specificity of 97%. Shortness of breath was detected with a sensitivity of 87% and a specificity of 96%. The larger version of Llama 2 with 70b parameters outperformed the smaller version with 7b parameters in all tasks. Prompt engineering improved zero-shot performance, particularly for smaller model sizes.ConclusionOur study successfully demonstrates the capability of using locally deployed LLMs to extract clinical information from free text. The hardware requirements are so low that not only on-premise, but also point-of-care deployment of LLMs are possible.Lay summaryWe leveraged the large language model Llama 2 to extract five key features of decompensated liver cirrhosis from medical history texts, simplifying the analysis of complex text-based healthcare data.
