Safety event reporting forms a cornerstone of identifying and mitigating risks to patient and staff safety. However, variabilities in reporting and limited resources to analyze and classify event reports delay healthcare organizations ability to rapidly identify safety event trends and to improve workplace safety. We demonstrated how large language models can classify safety event report narratives as workplace violence and communication failures as a first step toward enabling automated labeling of safety event reports and ultimately improving workplace safety.

Matching journals

The top 9 journals account for 50% of the predicted probability mass.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
