Automated Medical Lab Report Simplification Workflow

This n8n workflow automates the process of managing, analyzing, and simplifying medical lab reports received via email. It streamlines the handling of PDF lab reports by extracting content, utilizing AI to create easy-to-understand summaries, and then formatting and sending patient-friendly reports via email. The workflow begins with an email trigger that monitors a designated inbox for new lab reports. Upon receiving a report, it extracts the PDF content and patient email information. The extracted data is then processed through an AI model powered by Ollama, which simplifies complex medical terminology into plain language, highlighting key results, and providing precautions and recommendations. Next, the simplified report is formatted with professional styling and crafted into an email content that includes both detailed HTML and plain text versions suited for email and messaging apps. Finally, the workflow sends the patient the simplified report via email. Ideal for healthcare providers, this workflow ensures quick, consistent, and patient-friendly communication of lab results, enhancing patient understanding and engagement.
