Abstract(in English) The hospital information system has expanded, and importance of medical data utilization is increasing. Electronic medical data include structured digital data and unstructured text data. It is expected that analyzing unstructured text data contribute to clinical decision support and improve medical process. The present paper analyzes the words that appear in semi-structured medical chart to predict the postoperative length of stay. SVM (support vector machine) were applied to extract feature words that characterize the medical charts of patients who stayed longer than the standard hospitalization. Three measures were proposed and the prediction performance for importance of the feature word was evaluated with respect to each measure. We extract the words that related clinical test, and show high frequency of the words in Objective item. Furthermore, we apply to show feature words that characterize the medical charts of long-hospitalization by Decision tree.
