The article explains that FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) is an internationally established standard for electronic health data exchange. By combining modern web technologies like REST and JSON with a modular data model—the so-called 'Resources'—FHIR enables structured, understandable, and interoperable communication in healthcare.
LexisNexis Reed Tech explains that FHIR is emerging as a key framework for exchanging product labeling information, driven by regulatory authorities and health systems pushing digital transformation. The webinar details how FHIR impacts medical device and pharmaceutical manufacturers, covering everything from electronic labeling (eLabeling) to streamlining updates across jurisdictions.

Aidbox announced updates to simplify the FHIR lifecycle. Key improvements include a new MCP module enabling connections to popular AI tools, and 'AidboxTrigger' for enforcing business rules via automatic SQL execution upon resource changes.
A specific FHIR resource, 'ror-telecom-usage', defines the common elements between itself and an identical resource type. This details the mandatory extensions and value constraints that this resource must possess.
John Grimes of CSIRO and others developed a new open-source health data standard called 'SQL on FHIR.' This standard aims to make it easier for analysts to analyze large volumes of structured FHIR data using existing skills and tools.
This resource provides information on a secondary outcome measure (CTIS2024-513951-33-00) designed to evaluate safety differences between participants receiving CBD and those receiving placebo during clinical trials. The analysis focuses specifically on routine blood sample testing results and the Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE 5.0), with particular attention paid to the last week before End of Treatment (EOT).
This document presents the structure (StructureDefinition) for defining 'available time periods' within the FHIR standard. This definition is used to specify a particular duration, including start and end dates, to describe when medical information resources are valid.
A multicenter, Phase II proof-of-concept study (DEUCRALIP) is evaluating the efficacy of the selective TYK2 inhibitor Deucravacitinib in lichen planus patients. The study assesses treatment effects by measuring changes in clinical symptoms and inflammatory parameters.
HL7 Europe has advanced technical specifications for transferring key health data, including medical images and e-prescriptions, in preparation for the European Health Data Space (EHDS). The session details the 'Imaging Study Report FHIR Implementation Guide' and outlines methods for stakeholder participation and contribution.
Dr. Carina Vorisek, a medical informatics expert, warns that data interoperability is essential for AI implementation in healthcare. She points out that current AI applications rely on siloed data from single institutions, making safe generalization to diverse patient populations difficult.
This page is a reference site that systematically organizes and provides various healthcare information based on the FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) standard. Users can view the definitions and structures of specific medical resources (e.g., AllergyIntolerance) by utilizing diverse filters such as version, authority, and region.
In modern healthcare settings centered on EHR systems, selecting the appropriate standard for data exchange is crucial. This article compares two major standards—HL7, with its long history, and FHIR, which uses an API-first approach—detailing their technical characteristics and implementation considerations.
openEHR International and Health Level Seven (HL7) International held a joint workshop to strengthen the collaboration between their respective health data standards. Both organizations identified key strategic areas for cooperation, bringing together global communities of clinicians, developers, and experts.

Deploying a FHIR server requires comprehensive planning that goes beyond mere activation, necessitating consideration of interoperability, security, performance, and governance. The article outlines 10 essential factors required to meet clinical and operational requirements.
This article details how to create or update an IoT Connector's FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) destination resource using the `New-AzHealthcareIotConnectorFhirDestination` PowerShell cmdlet within a Microsoft Azure environment. This functionality allows data from an Azure workspace to be linked and standardized into a FHIR target.
DataArt supports the modernization of healthcare data using AWS HealthLake, helping clients meet regulatory demands. By structuring clinical, claims, and observational data based on standards like FHIR, they build systems enabling real-time analysis and exchange.
Aidbox has published a comprehensive guide on setting up the "MCP FHIR Server," which simplifies the creation and editing of FHIR resources. This functionality allows for setup with just one command, enabling management of FHIR resources from LLM desktop applications.
