Introduction to FHIR for Research is a three-hour training course that aims to provide NIH research scientists and program officers with an understanding of how FHIR could impact their research, and how they can take advantage of it. This webinar covers the background and context of FHIR, what data and tools are available, and examples of research using FHIR. It is broken into three parts:

Part 1: Background and Context of FHIR
This section provides essential background and context on FHIR, including the history and evolution of the standard, its relation to similar frameworks, and its components and data structure.

Part 2: The FHIR Ecosystem
After discussing FHIR background, we'll next turn to discussing the broader ecosystem of FHIR systems and capabilities practitioners can hope to leverage. This section will explore the extent of systems, tools, and applications available to users.

Part 3: Working with FHIR
We will now explore a detailed set of applications for FHIR starting with a sampling of recent FHIR uses in both industry and academia. We will then provide a series of case studies leveraging both Python and R to demonstrate how FHIR can be used to extract and utilize medical data.

This presentation reviews the history of the laboratory orders (LOI) and results (LRI) implementation guides in general, some of the common aspects shared between them and how these standards are used together

This presentation discusses how the laboratory orders (LOI) and results (LRI) implementation guides are written and some of the ways they are different from other v2 standards.

This presentation discusses how the values sets used by the laboratory orders (LOI) and results (LRI) implementation guides are documented.

This presentation describes the use cases encompassed by the laboratory orders (LOI) implementation guide and details some of the unique features of the profiles defined in the standard.

This presentation describes the use case encompassed by the laboratory results (LRI) implementation guide and details some of the unique concepts in the standard including snapshot mode and parent-child linkages

This presentation describes some of the technical constraints included in the profiles used by the laboratory results (LRI) implementation guide.

Allows public health laboratories to assess strengths and gaps in informatics capability by addressing 19 critical operational areas

This course provides information on the role and processes of laboratory informatics through exploration of the “life of a result” as data and results move through the laboratory and outside the laboratory. Topics covered include characterization of the recipients of laboratory data, data and results storage, and the communication of data and results (especially electronically) to various stakeholders

This basic-level eLearning course provides an overview of the Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) – also known as a Laboratory Information System – and other information systems that play a key role in laboratory informatics. Included in the course are explorations of LIMS functionality, the role of the LIMS in interoperability, various regulations and standards regarding information systems and laboratory data, and the steps in implementing a LIMS.

This course provides information on the role and processes of laboratory informatics through exploration of the “life of a specimen” as a specimen moves through the laboratory. Topics covered include the roles of various personnel in the laboratory informatics enterprise, data relationships, data quality, and standards, and the generation and flow of information as a specimen progresses through the pre-analytic, analytic, and post-analytic phases.
