SDC in FHIR

SDC or Structured Data Capture might sound unfamiliar, but it is of interest to many health IT engineers. Anyone involved in a project that needed to collect data via clinical forms or maybe developed applications that allow designing clinical forms was working on the same problem that is addressed by the FHIR SDC specification. FHIR SDC specification standardizes the process of describing the form, collecting clinical data, and storing it to the Clinical Data Repository. I am sure that many will find this session useful; someone might find an existing tool to use in their project.

Different kind of UI forms plays an important role in any healthcare application

In the case of some platform that is used by multiple organizations, lots of efforts are usually spent on customization for such forms to fit the particular organization’s needs. I would like to share my experience, how it could be achieved in a less painful way.

SDC-related tools

Paul showed us how he helped to develop an open-source JavaScript library for rendering Questionnaires at the National Library of Medicine’s Lister Hill Center (LHC). The library supports most of the SDC specification and has a live demo.

Rapid Form Building with FHIR

A number of FHIR based clinical data repositories have recently come to market. However, clinical organizations often need to develop inhouse applications in order to leverage these platforms. Atmodyne facilitates rapid application development against the FHIR model while requiring minimal technical knowledge from the users.
