Clinical Working Group Update

• The Query Health Use Case was approved through consensus as of the 11/16 Clinical WG meeting

• Congratulations go to Merideth Vida, Michael Buck, and all the committed members of the Query Health Clinical Working Group for this critical accomplishment.

• We will now begin to transition into the Clinical Data Dictionary (also known as Query Health CIM) and Clinical Concept Mapping work

Next Steps:

• Sign up to participate in the CIM and Clinical Concept Mapping activities by visiting the Clinical Working Group homepage

Getting to a Query Health “CIM”

• Kickoff the CIM Overview on the next Clinical Working Group call• Review of existing technical foundation data models (focus on

clinical content)– SHRINE (i2B2)– Mini-Sentinel (PopMedNet)– hQuery

• Introduce the Clinical Data Dictionary Crosswalk• Schedule subject matter expert discussions (CEM, FHIM, etc..)• Tangible outcome we are looking for

– A clinically-relevant, reusable and simple data dictionary with supporting documentation and models that can be used to support the Query Health Technical Foundation

Immediate Next Steps – Query Health “CIM”

Adding Clinical Concept Mapping Approach “Guidance”

• Setup Clinical Concept Mapping meeting time for early December kickoff

• Outreach efforts to leading experts and organizations– Mayo Clinic (through Sharp-N Grant – Secondary Use of EHR

Data)– Kaiser Permanente (CMT)– Clinical Information Modeling Initiative (CIMI)

• Stan Huff and Chris Chute

– CDISC SHARE• Layout coordination plan and draft approach to move from concept

to draft guidance

Immediate Next Steps – Clinical Concept Mapping

Operations Working Group

Proof Of Concept Update

Proof Of Concepts Page:

http://wiki.siframework.org/Query+Health+Proof+of+Concepts

- PopMedNet, i2B2 and hQuery POC• http://wiki.siframework.org/PopMedNet+i2B2+and+hQuery+POC

- DIRECT and FlatFile based Approach• http://

wiki.siframework.org/Query+Health+DIRECT+and+FlatFile+based+POC

• Please sign up on the wiki pages if you wish to participate actively in the proof of concepts or propose a new proof of concept and lead it.

Proof Of Concept Update- PopMedNet, i2B2, hQuery

• Demo network being setup by PopMedNet• Provide access to participants to create and experiment

with queries and play the role of researchers, data mart administrators etc.

• PopMedNet working on how to interface i2B2 and hQuery to their network

• Start with i2B2 and extend to hQuery• Source Code and Design Documents received from

PopMedNet/Lincoln Peak• Trying to figure out the best approach to make it

available.

Proof Of Concept Update- Demo of DIRECT Flat File Based Approach

• Steve Beller from National Health Data Systems Inc.

• http://wiki.siframework.org/Query+Health+DIRECT+and+FlatFile+based+POC

Query Analysis Updates

• http://wiki.siframework.org/Query+Health+-+Query+and+Data+Model+Analysis

• Keith Boone doing work on Query Conversions from standards notation to implementation notations

• EMF/HQMF to hQuery conversion leading to Java Script

• EMF/HQMF to SQL conversion

Next Steps

• Register for F2F on 11/29• Register for Proof of Concept teams

• Participate and help in creating the various proof of concepts

• Query Analysis• Complete Query Analysis and help implement the

queries in the proof of concepts• Need to determine the lessons learned from Keith’s work

on query conversions

Important Announcements

• Clinical Working Group Activities underway (OPEN TO ALL)• Clinical Information Model (CIM)• Clinical Concept Mapping

• Operations Working Group Activities underway (OPEN TO ALL)• Pilots Sub-Work Group
