Nordic countries as forerunners for openEHR

Norway, Sweden and Finland may be considered as forerunners in adopting openEHR and moving towards open ecosystems. Cross-organizational data sharing has historically been the objective in all Nordic countries. The needs to share data resulted in national document-based data sharing infrastructures in all Nordic countries. That was, however, somewhat limited and the need for complementary structured sharing has started to emerge. In the Nordics the dominant EHR market leaders chose openEHR as their own data model and started to modernize their solutions as their own internal decision. The Nordic experience shows that in order to build a true ecosystem, it is important to increase awareness among all stakeholders. This lecture discusses the Nordic drivers, benefits and challenges of openEHR as well as the ways how you can make the openEHR project successful.

International patient summary and the use of SNOMED CT

The International patient Summary (IPS) is an extract of an electronic health record containing essential healthcare information to support cross-border and unscheduled patient care. The IPS also has the potential to be used in many other scenarios where a patient crosses health information systems, like travel between provinces/states, cities or organizations that use a different Health Information System. The implementation and support for the IPS comes from a commitment by the G7 and Global Digital Health Partnership. International standards organisations have come together to deliver on this commitment, with SNOMED International providing the free global set of clinical terms to support it's implementation. The development and expansion of the use of the IPS and the SNOMED free set is making a real difference to cross border care globally, and to interoperability specifically
Journey beyond the data with openEHR

Delivery of nursing terminology in the digital age is essential to the provision of safe nursing care at a global, national and local level. The provision is fundamental to the delivery of multi-disciplinary care, where nursing information is critical. The requirement is therefore to ensure that clinical terminology in EHR systems is clinically correct, up to date and available for use. The formal collaboration between the International Council of Nurses (ICN) and SNOMED International seeks to deliver these aspirations, with an ongoing commitment to ensure the alignment of ICNP (International Classification of Nursing Practice) and SNOMED CT. The collaboration will provided clinically ensured nursing terminology within EHRs and that the data is available to support nursing research globally.
