چکیده

Semantic interoperability in healthcare can be achieved by a tighter coupling of terminology and HL7 message models. In this paper, we highlight the difficulty of achieving this goal, but show how it can become attainable by basing HL7 message models on SNOMED CT concepts and relationships. We then demonstrate how this methodology has been applied to a set of clinical observations for use in the ePOC project, and discuss our findings.

Semantic validation of the use of SNOMED CT in HL7 clinical documents

BACKGROUND The HL7 Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) constrains the HL7 Reference Information model (RIM) to specify the format of HL7-compliant clinical documents, dubbed CDA documents. The use of clinical terminologies such as SNOMED CT® further improves interoperability as they provide a shared understanding of concepts used in clinical documents. However, despite the use of the RIM and o...

Towards Semantic Interoperability in Healthcare: Ontology Mapping from SNOMED-CT to HL7 version 3

One of the most successful Healthcare Information Models is version 2 of the Health Level 7 (HL7) standard. However, this standard has various problems, mainly its lack of semantic interoperability. This shortfall was addressed in HL7 Version 3, a newer standard which has been designed to solve this problem. Total semantic interoperability cannot be achieved without defined terminology, and to ...
