Hello Deepal,
This could be a result of a parsing error. Please, check whether the second 
blood pressure is annotated as NP.

Hello Kim,

Yeah when I processed record individually blood pressure was annotated as a 
medical concept. Can you kindly explain the reason behind this difference in 
behavior.

Thanks so much.

Hi Deepal,

Trying running the records individually and see if it identifies the terms 
correctly; if so I may have an idea of the problem.

Thanks,

Hello Kim,

The records were processed in a batch using UIMA Collection processing Engine.
The parameters for UIMA CPE were as follows:

Thanks

Hi Deepal,

Was either record processed in a batch of records? Or where they
processed as individual records?
