PyHealth

PyHealth (https://pyhealth.dev/) is a Python toolkit for clinical deep learning. It provides a unified, modular pipeline across electronic health records (EHR), physiological signals, and medical imaging.

The library is built around a 5-stage pipeline — Dataset → Task → Model → Trainer → Metrics — where each stage is replaceable and the interfaces between stages are stable. Code that follows this pipeline shape composes well; code that bypasses it usually fights the library.

When to use this skill

Use this skill whenever the user is doing clinical/healthcare ML and any of the following are true:

• They mention PyHealth, MIMIC-III/IV, eICU, OMOP-CDM, EHRShot, SleepEDF, SHHS, ISRUC, COVID19-CXR, ChestX-ray14, TUEV/TUAB.
• They want to predict mortality, readmission, length of stay, drug recommendations, sleep stages, ICD codes, EEG events, or de-identification.
• They need to look up or cross-map medical codes (ICD-9-CM, ICD-10-CM, ATC, NDC, RxNorm, CCS).
• They have EHR-shaped data and want to train a clinical model without writing the plumbing themselves.

PyHealth is the right tool when the workflow fits its 5 stages. If the user just wants generic PyTorch on tabular data, this skill is not necessary.
