Analysis of HL7 standard used for medical data exchange

Aleš Brezovar (2010) Analysis of HL7 standard used for medical data exchange. EngD thesis.

Abstract

Segments of the project eZdravje (eHealth) are presented in the thesis. The project is still in the phase of development in Slovenia, however it raises expectations of substantial changes in the field of the computerisation of health care once it is fully implemented. The goals of the project eZdravje are described as well as the foreseen improvements in the field of computerisation of health care. A non-profit standardisation organisation HL7, which is setting the standards for simplification of the processing of data in health care, is presented. Those standards have been described in detail and their functioning has been explained. I have described the two HL7 standards for the presentation of data in health care. The first standard is a standard demand language designed for the processing of data bases. The second standard is a standardised programming language Arden Syntax, which is used in modules for the decision-making, dissemination of information and the alarming of the medical staff in certain situations (MLM modules).
