Diagnoses were categorized according to ICD-10 and medications according to the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) classification system. Descriptive analyses quantified contact counts, diagnosis frequency, comorbidity rates, and medication frequency within each diagnostic category. Next, we mapped the medications used across all the contacts and noncomorbid contacts separately along each axis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Of 7214 prescribing contacts (axis I: n=7179, 99.51%; axis II: n=821, 11.38%; axis III: n=65, 0.90%), comorbidity was present in 12.06% (n=866) contacts in axis I, 96.10% (n=789) contacts in axis II, and 96.92% (n=63) contacts in axis III. Leading diagnoses were behavioral-emotional disorders (ICD-10 codes F90-F98) in axis I, school skills and learning difficulties (ICD-10 code F81) in axis II, and mild mental retardation (ICD-10 code F70) in axis III. Most observed comorbidities were F90-F98 with speech and language development disorder (ICD-10 code F80), ICD-10 code F81, and mixed specific skills development disorder (ICD-10 code F83). Psychostimulants predominated across all diagnosis axes, with methylphenidate being the most common. For other ATC categories, the most commonly prescribed medications were antidepressants (sertraline and fluoxetine), antipsychotics (risperidone and aripiprazole), hypnotics and sedatives (melatonin), antiepileptics (lamotrigine), anxiolytics (diazepam), and nonpsychotropics (laxatives, vitamins, and supplements). Medication profiles varied minimally by axis or comorbidity status.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We demonstrated a mining and mapping analytic pipeline for EHRs to analyze diagnoses, comorbidities, and prescribing practices at the individual contact level. In the Norwegian CAMHS, axis I diagnoses are common, often behavioral-emotional disorders. Among the medications, psychostimulants and antidepressants are common. Beyond characterizing diagnoses and medication prescribing patterns, the study presents an approach for mining and mapping EHR data to analyze and provide service-level metrics, as well as clinical practice insights.<\/jats:p>\n
