This work focuses on the integration of multifaceted extensive data sets (e.g. laboratory values, vital data, medications) and partly unstructured medical data such as discharge letters, diagnostic reports, clinical notes etc. in a research database. Our main application is an integrated faceted search in nephrology based on information extraction results. We describe the details of the application of transplant medicine and the resulting technical architecture of the faceted search application.
