Different data formats are challenging for the standardization and exchange of medical data. In addition, most medical data in medical information systems (MIS) or databases is stored in an unstructured way, causing difficulties in processing the data. The article proposes an approach for categorizing unstructured medical records of patients with allergies into the categories provided in the FHIR exchange standard. We developed a two-stage classification model based on manually labelled ...
