Including patient-generated health data in electronic health records – a solution for CGM-data

Abstract

Patients with diabetes and health personnel do not have an optimal way of interacting. Health personnel must use multiple ICT systems, such as third-party companies’ services, to access health-related data from diverse vendors’ CGM platforms and Electronic Health Record (EHR). Furthermore, other health-related data like physical activities, quality of life or well-being is often discussed but rarely stored inside the EHR system. We propose a future-proof architecture for diabetes medical consultation using the HL7 Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) standard.
