SMART on FHIR applications are standards-based tools integrated with electronic health record (EHR) systems and intended for dissemination across EHR platforms. A key challenge for disseminating many apps is that EHR vendors provide different levels of support for FHIR. Thus, app developers must balance functionality versus portability. In this case study, a feature-rich app for neonatal bilirubin management was developed prioritizing physician-requested functionality, with custom FHIR interfaces implemented within the EHR as needed. Following wide intra-institutional use, several approaches are being pursued for adapting the app for cross-institutional dissemination: user surveys and interviews to identify least-valued app features which could potentially be omitted; enabling the application to provide differential features depending on available EHR FHIR capabilities; replacing custom FHIR interfaces with native EHR FHIR interfaces as they became available; and using a canonical logical data model known as QUICK that can be mapped to different FHIR versions and profiles.
基于快速医疗互操作性资源(FHIR)的智能应用程序是与电子健康记录(EHR)系统集成的基于标准的工具,旨在跨EHR平台传播。传播许多应用程序面临的一个关键挑战是,EHR供应商对FHIR的支持程度不同。因此,应用程序开发人员必须在功能与可移植性之间取得平衡。在本案例研究中,开发了一个功能丰富的新生儿胆红素管理应用程序,优先考虑医生要求的功能,并根据需要在EHR中实现自定义FHIR接口。在机构内部广泛使用之后,正在采取几种方法来调整该应用程序以进行跨机构传播:进行用户调查和访谈,以确定可能被省略的最不值钱的应用程序功能;使应用程序能够根据可用的EHR FHIR功能提供不同的功能;在可用时用原生EHR FHIR接口替换自定义FHIR接口;以及使用一种称为QUICK的规范逻辑数据模型,该模型可以映射到不同的FHIR版本和配置文件。
