My name is Alberto Moreno, PhD student at University College London. As part of my PhD I am conducting a Delphi study about functional requirements that should be satisfied by clinical information modeling tools. Rather than identify which functionalities are currently available in existing tools the questionnaire aims to identify functionalities that should be covered in order to provide guidance about how to evolve the existing tools.
In this study it is used the concept Clinical Information Model (CIM) as a generic term that englobes any specification or proprietary solution focused on the definition on how Electronic Health Record information should be structured to support semantic interoperability among systems. They include ISO EN 13606 archetypes, openEHR archetypes, HL7 Clinical Document Architecture and HL7 Templates, Detailed Clinical Models and the work carried out within the Clinical Information Modeling Initiative. *I?d like to request the participation of experts in clinical modeling to **answer the following* questionnaire <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1IVuGyNgV9vt_wlEfLaD1aleKfvCPhyICaECO_r5cmRg/viewform>to help us obtaining enough inputs to obtain sufficient statistical results in our research. We will collect the answers till *22th of November* and after one month. This research is carried out in collaboration with the *SemanticHealthNet *project (European Network of Excellence FP7-ICT-2011-7). The study is designed in 2 stages: - 1st experts will require to answer the online questionnaire anonymously. This makes possible to define and analyses complex topics, - 2nd round will provide you the average results of total number of participants in the previous round as feedback by early December and will ask if you agree with the overall view of the sample of experts. Although I have contacted some of you directly, I send this email to obtain wider sample of experts in clinical information modeling for EHR making the research open to anyone that would like to provide their opinion. This will reduce possible of bias and stronger statistical results. I expect that you will find results interesting, it will be submitted to one specialized journal and shared with those that participate.
