International collaboration on health informatics standardization is crucial for global interoperability. This workshop reviewed current activities of standard development organizations (SDOs) and discussed future directions toward "future medicine".
Area of Science:
- Health Informatics
- Healthcare Technology
- Medical Standardization
Background:
- Global importance of health informatics standardization for interoperability and compatibility.
- Key standard development organizations (SDOs) include ISO, CEN, IHE, and HL7.
- The increasing need for standardized technologies in advancing healthcare.
Purpose of the Study:
- To report on the current activities of major SDOs in health informatics standardization.
- To discuss the future trajectory of health informatics standardization.
- To foster collaboration towards "future medicine" through standardized technologies.
Main Methods:
- A workshop was conducted to review past and present standardization activities.
- Discussions focused on the future direction of health informatics standardization.
- Collaboration with World Health Organization (WHO) members was established.
Main Results:
- The workshop facilitated a shared understanding of the status of each SDO's activities.
- Active participation and opinion exchange among attendees.
- Engagement of WHO members in supporting standardization efforts.
Conclusions:
- Workshop speakers were appointed to the IMIA working group on Standards in Health Care Informatics (WG16).
- A consensus was reached on the importance of international collaboration for health informatics standardization.
- The collective goal is to advance "future medicine" through unified standardization efforts.

Guidelines for Writing Outcome
Patient outcomes reflect the patient's response to the goal rather than what the nurse aims to achieve. Terminology should be observable and measurable to avoid the reader's interpretation. The desired outcome should be realistic and achievable in the designated care timeframe. Expected outcomes should align with adjunctive therapies. The outcome should enhance care...
