Abstract

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) has a high prevalence, threatening public health. Despite the high prevalence, there has not been a proper solution to standardize the data in this domain in Iran. Therefore, this study aims to provide a new approach to standardizing CRC data using Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR).

Material and methods: This study was conducted in five phases. First, a literature review was performed to gain the CRC core data elements based on the scientific databases and thematic websites. Second, we developed a researcher-made questionnaire with a five-choice Likert scale to gain the most important core data elements based on the opinions of specialists. Third, we leveraged the Delphi method to score these elements and develop the minimum data set (MDS) for CRC. Fourth, we used the terminologies to better perceive the concepts and thematic classification of core data elements. Fifth, we leveraged the FHIR to map the CRC core data elements to resources and standardize them.

Results: Ten CRC data categories of classes were obtained from the literature review and Delphi, including administrative, diagnosis, therapeutic procedure, follow-up, patient referral, vital status, drug, clinical assessment, signs and symptoms, and history of conditions. The obtained resources were patient, care team, condition, family member history, medication request, adverse event, schedule, procedure, location, observation, diagnostic report, specimen, molecular sequence, genomic study, and service request.

Conclusion: This study showed the FHIR-based standardization of the CRC data as an approach for integrating health institutions to facilitate clinical decision-making and secondary use of healthcare data.

建立结直肠癌的核心数据元素和绘制FHIR资源:建立可互操作的伊朗卫生信息系统。
背景:结直肠癌(Colorectal cancer, CRC)发病率高,危害公众健康。尽管患病率很高,但在伊朗还没有一个适当的解决方案来规范该领域的数据。因此,本研究旨在提供一种使用快速医疗互操作性资源(FHIR)标准化CRC数据的新方法。材料与方法:本研究分为五个阶段进行。首先,基于科学数据库和专题网站进行文献综述,获得CRC核心数据元素。其次,我们根据专家的意见,开发了一份由研究者制作的李克特五选项问卷,以获得最重要的核心数据元素。第三,我们利用德尔菲法对这些元素进行评分,并为CRC开发最小数据集(MDS)。第四,我们使用术语来更好地理解核心数据元素的概念和主题分类。第五,利用FHIR将CRC核心数据元素映射到资源并进行标准化。结果:通过文献回顾和德尔菲法,我们获得了十类CRC数据,包括行政管理、诊断、治疗程序、随访、患者转诊、生命状态、药物、临床评估、体征和症状、病史。获得的资源包括患者、护理团队、病情、家族史、用药请求、不良事件、时间表、程序、地点、观察、诊断报告、标本、分子序列、基因组研究和服务请求。结论:本研究表明,基于fhr的CRC数据标准化可作为整合医疗机构以促进临床决策和医疗数据二次使用的一种方法。
