ABSTRACT
The Clinical Information Modeling Initiative (CIMI) aims to improve the
interoperability of healthcare systems through shared clinical
information models. CIMI is implementation neutral, but the CIMI
constraint language is non-trivial to implement, as it is incremental
and fine grained. We have been exploring the hypothesis that the
optimal way to implement CIMI would be to convert the data into RDF and
then use an RDF-based constraint language to interpret the CIMI
constraints. This will make it possible to use CIMI in a runtime
environment after either mapping data to FHIR or transforming data into
RDF and then mapping it to the CIMI/FHIR equivalent.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Harold R. Solbrig has been involved in medical computing since the early
1970s. Over the past two decades his emphasis has been on the role of
formal semantics in data interoperability with a focus on clinical
terminology, and terminology and data binding. Mr. Solbrig joined Mayo
Clinic in 1999 and is currently working on the representation and
implementation of data semantics through the use of constraint modeling
and RDF.
