Hospital-acquired pressure ulcer injury (PUI) is a primary nursing quality metric, reflecting the caliber of nursing care within a hospital. Prior studies have used the Braden scale and structured data from the electronic health records to detect/predict PUI while the informative unstructured clinical notes have not been used. We propose automated PUI detection using a novel negation-detection algorithm applied to unstructured clinical notes. Our detection framework is on-demand, requiring minimal cost. In application to the MIMIC-III dataset, the text features produced using our algorithm resulted in improved PUI detection when evaluated using logistic regression, random forests, and neural networks compared to text features without negation detection. Exploratory analysis reveals substantial overlap between key classifier features and leading clinical attributes of PUI, adding interpretability to our solution. Our method could also considerably reduce nurses' evaluations by automatic detection of most cases, leaving only the most uncertain cases for nursing assessment.
