Interoperability has been deemphasized from the hospital information system in general, because it is operated independently of other hospital information systems. This study proposes a future-oriented hospital information system through the design and actualization of the HL7 clinical document architecture. A clinical document is generated using the hospital information system by analysis and designing the clinical document architecture, after we defined the item regulations and the templates for the release form and radiation interpretation form. The schema is analyzed based on the HL7 reference information model, and HL7 interface engine ver.2.4 was used as the transmission protocol. This study has the following significance. First, an expansion and redefining process conducted, founded on the HL7 clinical document architecture and reference information model, to apply international standards to Korean contexts. Second, we propose a next-generation web based hospital information system that is based on the clinical document architecture. In conclusion, the study of the clinical document architecture will include an electronic health record (EHR) and a clinical data repository (CDR), and also make possible medical information-sharing among various healthcare institutions.

This study proposes the actualization of a standard data model for activities through the development of clinical document architecture for medication administration using the health level 7 development frameworks(HDF) process based on object oriented analysis and development method of health level 7 V 3. Medication administration is the most common activity performed by clinical professionals at healthcare settings. A standardized information model and structured hospital information system are necessary to achieve evidence-based clinical activities. We had used HDF and various tools(Rose tree, RMIM designer, V3 generator) to create the clinical document architecture(CDA). This allowed us to illustrate each step of the HDF in the administration of medication. This study generated a information model of the medication administration process, which is one clinical activity. It should become a fundamental conceptual model for understanding international standard methodology by information technology(IT) developers with the objective of modeling healthcare information systems.

The goal of this paper is to propose a new way to register CDA documents in CDR (Clinical Document Repository) that is proposed by the author earlier. One of the methods is to use a manifest archiving for seamless references and visualization of CDA related files. Another method is to enhance the CDA security level for supporting pseudonymization of CDA. The former is a useful method to support the bundled registration of CDA related files as a set. And it also can provide a seamless presentation view to end-users, once downloaded, without each HTTP connection. The latter is a new method of CDA registration which can supports a do-identification of a patient. Usually, CDA header can be used for containing patient identification information, and CDA body can be used for diagnosis or treatment data. So, if we detach each other, we can get good advantages for privacy protection. Because even if someone succeeded to get separated CDA body, he/she never knows whose clinical data that is. The other way, even if someone succeeded to get separated CDA header; he/she doesn't know what kind of treatment has been done. This is the way to achieve protecting privacy by disconnecting association of relative information and reducing possibility of leaking private information. In order to achieve this goal, the method we propose is to separate CDA into two parts and to store them in different repositories.

For the sharing and exchange of information between medical clinics, the clinical document has to be built on a standardized protocol such as a HL7-CDA. But it is difficult to exchange information between medical clinics because clinical document such as electronic medical record that include text and image, have different structure of document and type of expression. In this paper, we propose the electronic medical record system based on HL7-CDA that can share and exchange clinical information between medical institute. For this purpose, we have to design the schema of the clinical document architecture after we select the essential items of medical record and define templates. The proposed system can minimize integrating process and save parsing time when clinical information exchange and refer, by converting electronic medical record to base64 encoding scheme and integrate it in a XML document.

LOINC (Logical Observation Identifiers Names and Codes) is a database and universal standard for identifying laboratory and clinical test results that is developed and maintained by Regenstrief Institute. Exchanging laboratory test results is one of the most important area in EHR system and the terminology for laboratory test results has to be standardized. In this paper, we present a pre-preprocessing tool that converts a local database in healthcare organizations to LMOF format LMOF format is required by RELMA and our work helps mapping laboratory test results to LOINC very efficiently Our proposed tool provided user friendly interface and 15% keyword reduction in RELMA search compared to no pre-processing RELMA search.

HL7 released V3 CDA(Clinical Document Architecture) and V2.x message standards for medical information exchange. Currently, these standards are successfully adopted by a number of nations across the globe. However, substantial amount of time is required to develop and implement these standards. Moreover, developers need a lot of time to understand these standards. To solve these issues from 2011, the HL7 standard framework started to discuss Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources(FHIR) as next generation standard of healthcare information exchange. People's interests toward personal health record and smartphone penetration rate are growing and increasing rapidly. Therefore, our research team believes it is necessary to develop a PHR profiling system which could be accessed by using a smartphone and we developed the system. Through a FHIR Profile editor tool developed in Furore, we found that improvements could be made in generating and changing the profile. In order to build the PHR Profiling system, an Open-API on FHIR is used for exchanging information between electronic medical record system and PHR Profiling system. In the PHR Profiling system, the transactions of information between two systems are provided by RESTful service. In this study, we verify the efficiency of development of the PHR Profiling system through FHIR.

Development of hospital information system and Picture Archiving Communication System is not new in the medical field, and the development of internet and information technology are also universal. In the course of such development, however, it is hard to share medical information without a refined standard format. Especially in the department of radiology, the role of PACS has become very important in interchanging information with other disparate hospital information systems. A specific system needs to be developed that radiological reports are archived into a database efficiently. This includes sharing of medical images. A model is suggested in this study in which an internal system is developed where radiologists store necessary images and transmit them in the standard international clinical format, Clinical Document Architecture, and share the information with hospitals. CDA document generator was made to generate a new file format and separate the existing storage system from the new system. This was to ensure the access to required data in XML documents. The model presented in this study added a process where crucial images in reading are inserted in the CDA radiological report generator. Therefore, this study suggests a storage and transmission model for CDA documents, which is different from the existing DICOM SR. Radiological reports could be better shared, when the application function for inserting images and the analysis of standard clinical terms are completed.

HL7(Health Level 7)은 보건의료 분야에서 ANSI에서 승인한 SDO(Standards Developing Organization)들 중의 하나이다. 대부분의 SDO들은 약제. 의료 장비 이미지, 보험 처리 등과 같은 보건의료 분야에서의 표준을 만든다. HL7의 영역은 진료와 병원 행정적인 부분이다. HL7에서는 Version2.3, Version2.4, Version3.0 등을 포함해 Data Model. Arden Syntax, CCOW(Common Context Object Workgroup) CDA(Clinical Document Architecture) 등의 표준을 만들어 나간다. 본 논문에서는 이 표준들 중 CCOW에 대해 알아보고. 기존 Agent System에 좀 더 지능적이고 자율적인 CCOW 서비스를 제공하는 방안을 알아본다.
