Background

Great Ormond Street Hospital, a specialist children’s centre, has established a digital research unit, including NHS clinicians, UCL academics and industry partners. The aim is to improve child health by optimising the use of clinical data for research. This task, incorporating the two-day FHIRworks Hackathon, will create a library of example developer packages that use the FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) standard. Students will use synthetically generated data retrieved over FHIR from a GOSH gateway to demonstrate capabilities and advantages of the FHIR standard for the collection and safe handling of healthcare data. This approach will support the development of various healthcare apps, for patients, families and healthcare professionals, like existing phone apps used regularly by millions. There is already a collection of synthetic records on GOSH DRIVE’s FHIR server. HL7 FHIR is a next generation standards JSON based framework that leverages the latest web standards and includes a RESTful API. FHIR interoperability ensures data is collected, accessed, and used in a safe and secure manner.

Process

Please review the following deployment guide link which contains the instructions and source code for the FHIR standard access at Great Ormond St Hospital.
