The Swiss Personalized Health Network (SPHN) strives for increasing the interoperability of health data across Switzerland. One of the advantages of adopting healthcare data standards is the potential for participation in global and regional medical network studies.
In this webinar, Kees van Bochove (Founder of The Hyve) explains the OMOP Common Data Model which is maintained by the global OHDSI open science community and which has been used successfully by numerous organizations, such as the European Medicines Agency and the IMI EHDEN consortium, to perform clinical studies in routinely generated observational medical data. Kees also briefly discusses the relation between the OMOP CDM and other healthcare data standards such as FHIR, CDISC, and the recently published SPHN interoperability framework which leverages RDF and semantic web standards.
