Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Computer Science

Background:

  • Exchanging and integrating patient data across diverse databases and institutions presents significant challenges.
  • Lack of universal patient identifiers complicates patient identification across systems.
  • Linking patient data across heterogeneous databases and institutional boundaries is a complex problem.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and implement methods for accurate patient identification and data linking across disparate systems.
  • To address the challenges of patient data exchange and integration in a distributed environment.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a patient identification (ID) translation model using patient attribute matching and computer-based human checking.
  • Created a dynamic linking method based on temporal mapping within the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) environment.

  • Implemented these methods into a CORBA-based object framework using distributed object computing technology.
  • Main Results:

    • Successfully built and tested a prototype CORBA-based object framework.
    • Demonstrated the effectiveness of the patient ID translation and dynamic linking methods through experiments.
    • Validated the system using a Web-based user interface.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed patient ID translation model and dynamic linking method are effective for patient data exchange and integration.
    • The CORBA-based framework facilitates overcoming barriers in cross-institutional patient data sharing.
    • These advancements are crucial for improving interoperability in healthcare systems.
