FHIR IS MAKING HEALTH DATA FAIR

  • Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) is an HL7 standard for electronic data exchange
  • FHIR enables data to be Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (FAIR)
  • FHIR solves long-intractable problems of sharing health data
  • Resources (the R in FHIR) is the technical HOW
  • HL7 standards development process is the human HOW

Evidence-Based Medicine wants to be FAIR

  • Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is
    • “the conscientious, explicit and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients”
    • “integration of clinical expertise, patient’s values and best available evidence in process of decision making related to patients health care”
    • “integration of best research evidence with clinical expertise and patient values”

Evidence = Analyzed Data

  • Evidence = Data + Context
  • Evidence is often published in journals
  • Data in FHIR + Context in journals does not interoperate

Evidence to Guidance to Action

  • Evidence is often published in journals
  • Guidance is often in decision support tools
  • Action can be in FHIR – but do these things interoperate?

Code System Development

 

  • We are following a 13-step Code System Development Protocol to develop and maintain 4 code systems.
  • Step 1 (Assemble Expert Working Group)
    • You are welcome to join this effort -- see Invitation to join Expert Working Group. At this time, we currently have 63 people signed up from 27 countries in 6 continents.
    • You can sign up now with the Code System Development Intake Form to join the expert working group for any of the first 4 code systems.
  • Step 2 (Identify common tools): 25 tools and systems identified for the code systems to support.
  • Step 3 (Draft terms): 485 non-redundant concepts identified to support the 25 tools and systems.
  • Step 4 (Identify relevant ontologies): We have 27 eligible Ontologies Identified for Code System Development.
  • Step 5 (Ontology mapping) is underway. 9 ontologies mapped so far, 18 to go.

  • Citation Manager - a system that aggregates citation data for articles and documents
  • Systematic Review Developer - a system that supports the selection of articles (inclusion/exclusion decision), data extraction, evidence synthesis, and reporting of findings
  • Evidence Variable Classifier - a system that describes the evidence variables (e.g. populations, exposures, and outcomes)
  • Evidence Classifier - a system that describes the evidence (evidence variables, statistics and certainty) in computable form

Track Scenario 2

Share a list of selected computable biomedical knowledge artifacts (CBKs)

  • Action: The Citation Manager will transmit a list of selected CBKs as a bundle of Citation Resources.
  • Success Criteria: A different Citation Manager will reliably display the list of selected CBKs.

Track Scenario 3

Create computable expressions for the evidence variables related to COVID-19 clinical research

  • Action: The Evidence Variable Classifier will create EvidenceVariable Resources expressing the population, exposures and outcomes for a clinical research article.
  • Success Criteria: Valid EvidenceVariable Resources are understood and agreed by other Evidence Variable Classifiers
  • Bonus point: Association of EvidenceVariable Resources with EvidenceReport Resources and Evidence Resources.

Track Scenario 4

Create computable expressions for the evidence (statistical summary of findings) related to COVID-19 clinical research

  • Action: The Evidence Classifier will create Evidence Resources for a clinical research article.
  • Success Criteria: Valid Evidence Resources are understood and agreed by other Evidence Classifiers
  • Bonus point: Association of Evidence Resources with EvidenceReport Resources and EvidenceVariable Resources.
