Sessions

In this session, Tomaž Gornik will build on the Postmodern EHR concept and explore how it is now maturing through two powerful forces: artificial intelligence and national-scale platform deployments. What began as an architectural vision is increasingly becoming the operating model for regions, countries, and large healthcare systems seeking both innovation and long-term resilience.

Sparked is Australia's National FHIR Accelerator , a community of over 1400 delivering the foundational clinical data models, FHIR Implementation Guides and SNOMED CT Value Sets to enable the modernisation of Australia's National Health Infrastructure and future Health Information Exchange.  This presentation will provide an overview of the approach to community development, standards development and governance that has established Sparked as one of the largest and most active standards development accelerators.

Many wellness and lifestyle apps unintentionally cross into the territory of regulated medical software. We’ll show founders, product managers, and investors how to recognise when an app becomes a medical device, the risks of ignoring this, and how to seize the opportunity instead. Practical insights from Revolve’s experience will help innovators future-proof their products.

This talk provides a focused overview of where health AI stands today, highlighting persistent disparities in data, development, and outcomes, and the risks these gaps introduce in clinical use, including woman’s health. Nicoleta Economou will reflect on these challenges from both a system perspective and her experience working in AI evaluation and governance, before sharing practical examples of how Duke Health is approaching these issues through real-world use cases. The session closes by emphasizing the need for greater awareness, stronger governance frameworks, and continued progress in developing AI that more reliably supports care for women.

How HL7 Norway, Norwegian Healthcare Network and Helsedirektoratet uses hackathon as a tool to raise awareness and implement new services in Norway.

The use and exchange of data in cancer care is essential to the provision of high-quality cancer care. To ensure that SNOMED CT meets current and future requirements, SNOMED International has entered into collaboration with a number of key global cancer data standards. The presentation will provide background to these collaborations and show how they have led to updates in the content of SNOMED CT, and how these can be used in direct patient care, cancer registries and to support research.
