Re: [COI] Clinical Observations Interoperability Telcon November 20, Tuesday 11:00am - 12:00pm US EST

Hi All,

I caught this quote from the Clinical Observation Interoperability 
Telcon that seems to be inaccurate:

"Clinical research data and clinical care data from EMRs have different 
information models and different terminological standards. CDISC's Study 
Data Tabulation Model (SDTM), an emerging standard for regulatory 
reporting of clinical research data, defines the study variables for a 
given clinical trial in terms of domains and observations. Although 
there are no widely used standards in the modeling of clinical 
information in EMRs, there is a large body of work in the 
Healthcare/Clinical Practice arena where detailed clinical models (DCM) 
have been developed"

To correct the mis-statement: The HL7 Observation standards for EMR's 
have been in use since the 1990's in both HL7 2.x standards and the new 
HL7 RIM-based standards found in CDA documents and other RIM-based 
standards. These RIM-based standards are now chosen by national 
government bodies including US (ONC contracts), Canada (Infoway), 
Australia (NEHTA), and the UK (NHS). Therefore, there are widely used 
standards for observations in EMR design.

Hope the work of the Clinical Observation Interoperability group makes 
sure that an effort is made to harmonize clinical trial observation 
standards with both of these older, widely-used HL7 standards for 
patient care....Dan
