Brief Presentation (More information at end, after slide 10)
Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise (IHE) - eHealth Initiatives
Elliot B. Sloane, PhD, CCE, FHIMSSPresident, Center for Healthcare Information Research and Policy
(CHIRP) & Co-Chair, IHE International
Joint ITU-WHO Workshop on e-Health Standards and Interoperability
(Geneva, Switzerland, 26-27 April 2012)
IHE International - www.IHE.net
Created in 1997 to assure electronic health data interoperability
Triggered by inability of products to reliably exchange DICOM images
Worldwide initiative in > 24 countriesNon-profit, volunteer driven, user-centric
No cost for membership or documentsJoin or download at www.IHE.net
Geneva, Switzerland, 26-27 April 2012 2
Main results to date
Many hundreds of software and hardware products tested around the world using the “IHE Profiles”
See http://connectathon-results.ihe.net/2012 product testing in North America, Asia-Oceania and Europe
Embedded in national/state standards in CanadaGradually emerging in US and China
Some products are “IHE Natives”Successful collaboration with Continua™

Challenges, lessons learned
Every new entrant wants to start with a fresh sheet of paper!
Waste of great talent and precious time
Never, ever really “done”Tomorrow’s innovations will require new adaptations
Mobile technologies are coming quickHow to share disciplines like security, standards with that enthusiastic crowd?
Geneva, Switzerland, 26-27 April 2012 7
Conclusions and Recommendations
Make standards, tools and toolsets visible to mHealth developersSponsor Mobile Technology “Connectathons” that demonstrate IHE, IEEE, HL7, Rosetta use
Grand prizes?Chronic disease smart phone apps that use IHE!
Education needed on value of “at rest” and “in-motion” data encryption
Free tools available!Personal health data MUST be protected!

IHE has eHealth initiatives in many/most key clinical areas
“eHealth”Broad umbrella
Health data needs to be in electronic form so it can be liberated/visible/usable by MANY stakeholders
PatientsCaregivers/family/supporting persons/agenciesPhysicians, nurses, hospitals, clinics, public health
Must be affordable, portable, & durableGIGO: Garbage In = Garbage Out
Health data must be correct, complete, timely, coordinated, AND, of course, secure
Geneva, Switzerland, 26-27 April 2012 15
Technology convergence
Mobile technologies like cell phones, smart phones, tablets, etc offer low cost mobile access to data (text, numbers, and images)
On the one hand “it’s all the same,” in that all computers manage the same binary coded dataMobile devices can do
Geneva, Switzerland, 26-27 April 2012 16
There is a new breed of crossover products
“smart phone” devices … (many/most w/FDA 510k
clearance) that show what is possible!
Here is a quick tour…
From: http://www.imedicalapps.com
FREE!
Well, those are “secondary use” devices for
radiologists or other physicians.
How about “real” devices used for diagnosis or
treatment?
Coming soon???
An entire large and growing conference has emerged, called the mHealth Summit, and a community has formed at mHIMSS.org
WHO led sessions there last December
More and more relevant products and services seem to emerge each week.
Some examples follow…
Only the Continua™ WAN devices offer IHE interoperabiity!
Wide spectrum, from “Personal Health Devices” to regulated
Medical Devices
IHE can handle all of these types of devices: clinical measurements of all sorts!
Geneva, Switzerland, 26-27 April 2012 31
In a real sense, IHE does not care if the device is a smartphone or not! i.e., systolic blood pressure is still the same!
IHE is vendor and “modality” neutral. e.g., Rosetta Project maps ALL vendor clinical
coding to each other via IEEE 11073
Extensible: IHE’s Rosetta Project harmonizes vendors to ISO/IEEE 11073 to SNOMED to ???
25% of HIMSS ’11 Interoperability Showcase vendors featured medical devices!
IHE’s Steady Growth!Partners from software, hardware, pharmaceuticals,
telecom, and more
IHE PCD facilitates -- and is inspiring -- innovation and
competition!
One vendor from China has designed, built, and is selling “IHE-PCD-native” anesthesia and monitoring products to US and global markets already!

Barriers to successful eHealth innovation?
13-20,000 new medical apps expected in the coming year
Apple, Droid, Window phones& tablets
NO apparent standardization, even though it would be so, so easy
Frankly, no awareness of a larger picture to share health data with each other and/or various providersFollow/leverage the Continua™ example?
