Converting data between FHIR and CDISC health IT data standards boosts interoperability of EHR data for clinical research, a new guide says.

To leverage EHR data interoperability for clinical research purposes, health IT stakeholders should convert data between FHIR and CDISC data standards, according to an implementation guide from CDISC and HL7.

The FHIR to CDISC Joint Mapping Implementation Guide defines mappings between HL7’s FHIR standard for healthcare data exchange and three CDISC Standards: CDASH (data collection), SDTM (data tabulation) and LAB (lab data exchange).

The guide, available on CDISC and HL7’s websites, is set to help healthcare organizations boost data interoperability for clinical research purposes by streamlining the flow of EHR data to CDISC submission-ready datasets.
