Abstract

The explosion of clinical textual data has drawn the attention of researchers. Owing to the abundance of clinical data, it is becoming difficult for healthcare professionals to take real-time measures. The tools and methods are lacking when compared to the amount of clinical data generated every day. This review aims to survey the text processing pipeline with deep learning methods such as CNN, RNN, LSTM, and GRU in the healthcare domain and discuss various applications such as clinical concept detection and extraction, medically aware dialogue systems, sentiment analysis of drug reviews shared online, clinical trial matching, and pharmacovigilance. In addition, we highlighted the major challenges in deploying text processing with deep learning to clinical textual data and identified the scope of research in this domain. Furthermore, we have discussed various resources that can be used in the future to optimize the healthcare domain by amalgamating text processing and deep learning.© The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2023, Springer Nature or its licensor (e.g. a society or other partner) holds exclusive rights to this article under a publishing agreement with the author(s) or other rightsholder(s); author self-archiving of the accepted manuscript version of this article is solely governed by the terms of such publishing agreement and applicable law.
