Background
- Standardizing consent processes reduces ambiguity and enables machine interpretation.
- Digitizing consent forms is crucial for modern healthcare data management.
Purpose Of The Study
- To develop a systematic approach for standardizing and digitizing pediatric consent forms.
- To address the complexities of pediatric consent involving legal guardians.
Main Methods
- Reviewed Arizona state regulations and 21 pediatric consent forms.
- Developed and evaluated an implementation-agnostic Consent for Treatment Framework.
- Assessed the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) standard's suitability.
Main Results
- The Consent for Treatment Framework aligns with state requirements and is validated for pediatric forms.
- FHIR demonstrated sufficient expressiveness to implement the framework and represent consent forms.
- The framework supports compliance and machine interpretability.
Conclusions
- Healthcare organizations can use open-source code and FHIR guidelines to standardize pediatric consent forms.
- FHIR-based executable models enhance legal compliance, interoperability, and data sharing.
- This standardization facilitates machine-interpretable consent for improved healthcare processes.
