The Challenge
The Cardinale Giovanni Panico Hospital intends to promote the development of a project for the standardization, in the OMOP COMMON DATA MODEL format, of the data relating to patients of the Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases and Cerebral Aging contained in hospital databases .
For the development of this project, the Card. G. Panico Hospital took part in the European tender 5th Data Partner Call coordinated by the EHDEN Consortium (https://www.ehden.eu/open-calls/05-2021-5th-%20data-partner-call/).
The objective of the European tender “5th Data Partner Call” is to convert patient data contained in Electronic Health Records, registries, Laboratory Databases and other data sources managed by European hospitals, according to the OMOP COMMON DATA MODEL standard, creating an integrated structure of the collected data, facilitating their use for a variety of objectives, improving and accelerating research and decision-making in healthcare, and gaining global advantage.
The solution
DataRiver, thanks to the experience gained in the field of Big Data integration and Clinical Data Harmonization, is able to support healthcare facilities in the process of standardization of health data with respect to the OMOP Common Data Model standard.
DataRiver supported the Hospital Cardinale Giovanni Panico in the execution of the project, carrying out data cleaning, processing and mapping of data sources according to the OMOP Common Data Model format required by the project.
Results
The Cardinale Giovanni Panico Hospital has developed the project for the standardization of patient data from the Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases and Cerebral Aging in the OMOP Common Data Model format using the data contained in hospital databases. The aim of the project is to further increase knowledge of the rare diseases being studied through the sharing of data between cutting-edge European research centres, with the aim of improving clinical activity.
