The DH-Convener Implementation Launch!

Oct 25, 2024

The Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Digital Health and Prevention has announced its collaborative venture for the DH-Convener!

In partnership with Edenlab | High-load IT solutions and Fitrockr Health Solutions teams, the Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Digital Health and Prevention will build an FHIR server for Patient-Generated Health Data (PGHD) and interoperability layer using healthcare interoperability standards like FHIR, openEHR International, and OMOP, and in alignment with FAIR principles and GDPR requirements.

🔍 Here’s What The Project will Be Diving Into:

1. Data Storage & Transition: How can we seamlessly link PGHD with Electronic Health Records (EHR)? 🗂️💻

2. EHR Integration Readiness: Is the current infrastructure ready to integrate PGHD? 🏥🔗

3. Interoperability Standards: Are FHIR, openEHR, and OMOP truly supportive of our wearable data endeavors in gathering and integration? 📊🤔

4. Access to Valid Data: How do we ensure the integrity and validity of the data we collect from wearable tools? ✅🔍

5. Security & Privacy: What steps can we take to safeguard PGHD and ensure patient privacy and GDPR? 🔒🛡️

6. Ethical Considerations: We’re committed to upholding the highest ethical standards in all aspects of our research. 🤝✨
