It was a great opportunity to exchange expertise with vendors from across Europe while testing our tools’ interoperability for: 🔹International Patient Summary exchange 🔹xShare download & one-time sharing via SMART Health Cards 🔹Both for consuming and sharing EHR data using our SMART web applications. 🤝 We truly enjoyed the hands-on collaboration, tackling real-time challenges together, and seeing the power of standards like HL7 FHIR, SMART-on-FHIR and EHRxF in action. Thanks to the Gazelle platform, the peer-to-peer testings were smooth and easy to follow. 🎤 We also had the chance to attend insightful presentations on healthcare…Read more

In the complex landscape of healthcare data, ensuring that different systems can communicate with each other is a significant challenge. Medical terminologies, with their vast and varied vocabularies, often become a barrier to data exchange. This is where terminology services become essential. In this blog post, we will explore the powerful terminology service feature within the toFHIR tool, demonstrating how it simplifies the handling of complex terminologies and code conversions in Electronic Health Record (EHR) ecosystems. The Challenge of Medical Terminologies EHR systems are rich with clinical information, but this data is often…Read more

The final General Assembly (GA) meeting of the CAREPATH project took place on 12 June 2025 in Birmingham, UK.

The meeting also addressed regulatory and ethical challenges encountered during implementation, especially concerning software as a medical device (SaMD). As a matter of fact, an in-depth discussion was held regarding the complexity of ethics approvals and regulatory inconsistencies across partner countries. The group agreed to collaborate on…Read more

REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture) is one of the most widely used platforms for collecting healthcare data in research and clinical studies. It is utilized by universities, hospitals, and other institutions worldwide. Since the adoption of FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources), developed by HL7 (Health Level Seven International), a modern standard for electronic healthcare data exchange, is rapidly growing across the healthcare ecosystem and interoperability becomes essential, it is inevitable for organizations using REDCap to find out ways to transform their data into FHIR format. This is where the toFHIR REDCap Integration comes in — a solution that…Read more

Defining schemas in toFHIR is simple for most datasets. However, when working with complex schema, the process can become more time-consuming. You may need to go through each column, carefully defining its structure and repeatedly testing your mappings to ensure they work as expected with real data. This define–test–adjust cycle can extend the setup time in those more demanding scenarios. But what if there were a smarter way? Imagine simply providing your raw data — whether from a database or file system — and having toFHIR automatically analyze it and generate the corresponding…Read more

PALLIAKID is a new Horizon Europe health project (Grant N. 101137169) , with its main objective being the investigation of novel interventions to improve the well-being and quality of life for children and young people with palliative and end-of-life care needs. The focus is on engaging with patients and family caregivers. The initiative, funded by the EU with a nearly 7 million euros budget, was launched in December 2023 and will last 4.5 years. The consortium comprises 17 partners in 12 European countries, including five clinical sites in Spain, Italy, Denmark, Finland and…Read more

The CAREPATH project, coordinated by ECLEXYS Sagl, is a European Horizon 2020’s project that proposes an ICT based solution for the optimization of clinical practice in the treatment and management of multimorbid patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) or mild dementia (MD). CAREPATH project solution will target a more complex multimorbidity scenario and follows an integrated patient-centered approach, to develop a flexible and modular system to deliver an optimized care, adapted framework that allow increasing the independence and Quality of Life (QoL) of multimorbid patients with dementia.  CAREPATH project focuses on the enhancement of healthcare interventions for…Read more

FAIR4Health is a project funded by the European Commission under H2020 Science with and for Society (SwafS-04-2018) topic. It has been carried out by 16 partners from 10 different countries and lasted 36 months, between 1 December 2018 and 30 November 2021. FAIR4Health encourages the application of FAIR principles in data derived from publicly funded health research initiatives, so that they can be shared and reused within the European Union (EU) health research community, defining an effective EU-wide strategy for the use of FAIR in Health. The FAIR4Health consortium consisting of experts from…Read more

POWER2DM project developed a care-management system for Type I and Type II Diabetes patients that helps them to comply with their treatment plans in between the consultations and support them and their healthcare practitioners for shared decision making and planning of next self-management period during consultations. The system consists of a self-management system (SMSS) and shared decision-making application (SDMA). The SMSS consists of a mobile application that supports patient for tracking their daily treatment plans through digital interventions and a web application that helps patient to evaluate their progress and get recommendations and…Read more

Applications continue for the 2.5 Million Euro Manufacturing and Industry 4.0 Open Call of our EFPF (European Factory Platform) project funded by the European Commission. For the Open Call, we are inviting manufacturing companies, digital solution providers, software developers and researchers to apply for sub-projects (approximately 20 sub-projects will be funded by 50K-150K Euros) related to the development, prototyping, integration, and validation of innovative solutions using the EFPF platform and federated services. There are various types of sub-projects to choose from (development of new applications using the EFPF SDK, testing and validation of EFPF solutions, and development of the EFPF ecosystem with already existing platforms and services),…Read more

HL7 Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR®) Connectathons feature hands-on FHIR development and testing.
