Structured retrieval closes the gap between low-cost and frontier clinical language models

2026-03-24

Abstract excerpt

Most clinical large language model (LLM) benchmarks rely on clean, concise vignettes that do not reflect the noisy, long-form documentation typical of real clinical records. How LLM performance degrades under realistic chart conditions remains poorly characterised. Here we test whether structured retrieval workflows protect National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scoring accuracy under systematic contex...
