Access to clinical data which are distributed among multiple satellite information systems is crucial to delivering better care and reducing costs in many hospitals and medical centers. An integrated view of these data is needed to reduce the effort of users requiring data from multiple systems. We have addressed the issue of distributed data integration while developing both production and research decision-support applications. We describe an ideal integration solution, obstacles to realizing this solution, and our integration requirements and architecture. Our focus is a description of our specific schema and data integration techniques. We conclude with an analysis of our approach.
获取分布在多个卫星信息系统中的临床数据对于许多医院和医疗中心提供更好的护理和降低成本至关重要。需要对这些数据进行综合查看，以减少用户从多个系统获取数据的工作量。我们在开发生产和研究决策支持应用程序时解决了分布式数据集成问题。我们描述了一种理想的集成解决方案、实现该解决方案的障碍以及我们的集成要求和架构。我们重点描述了我们的特定模式和数据集成技术。最后我们对我们的方法进行了分析。
