A novel query-guided self-supervised domain adaptation approach is introduced for abstractive nursing note summarization, utilizing patient-related clinical queries as guidance without requiring reference summaries for training. The proposed method, QGSumm, is compared with state-of-the-art Large Language Models (LLMs) for nursing note summarization, showing GPT-4 to be competitive in maintaining original content and QGSumm achieving high-quality summaries with a good balance between recall and hallucination rate.

Nursing notes are important parts of Electronic Health Records. Summarizing these notes helps clinicians quickly understand patients’ conditions. Researchers have developed new ways to summarize notes, but they don’t work well without extra help. A team created a special approach that uses patient-related questions to guide the summarization process. This method doesn’t need any extra information to learn from. The researchers tested their approach and compared it with other methods using big language models. Their results show that this new approach can create good summaries by balancing what’s important and what’s not.
