About this event
Overview
It has been demonstrated that using standards from the start of clinical research studies (i.e. protocol and CRF development) can save significant time and resources and results in higher quality research. Unfortunately, it is not always clear how to select the appropriate standards for the purpose and how to ensure they are robust and will achieve the desired goals. All too often in the standards development world, we are faced with competing standards, new ‘standards’ development when standards already exist, or mapping data into a standard after the study has ended. These redundancies and inefficient methods incur costs in terms of resources, money and, in some cases, risks to patients (i.e. all of us). They may also have a negative effect on the data. This workshop is the first of a series of 3 and is organized in the context of xShare, a three-year Horizon Europe project that envisions expanding the European Electronic Health Record exchange Format (EEHRxF) to improve interoperability within the European Health Data Space (EHDS). It is the hope that these new interoperability capabilities and this collaborative work will enable a greater alignment of data quality between care and research, to transform data into valuable knowledge with benefits for all. We will cover the research use cases that are the focus of xSHARE and the standards that are being employed in a synchronized manner.
Attendees of this webinar will learn:
a) Overview of the EU xSHARE project
b) Rationale and benefits of using standards in the planning stage of clinical research studies
c) Characteristics of robust standards and achieving semantic interoperability at the source
d) Examples of complementary implementation of standards, including xSHARE
e) Five principles of developing and implementing synchronous standards
