Health Level Seven International has announced the launch of its new Caliper FHIR Accelerator implementation community.
The multi-stakeholder initiative aims to improve how data from medical and personal health devices is exchanged, integrated and used across all care settings and users.
The goal is to bring data exchange standards from theory to real-world practice, according to HL7.
Through the Caliper Accelerator program, medical device vendors, healthcare providers and IT developers will collaborate to advance device safety and innovation through standardized informatics and artificial intelligence integrations, HL7 said in its announcement last week.
Caliper participants, most of which contribute via a paid-membership model, will vote on project priorities and governance, will take a hands-on approach, and will actively steward the Gemini program to ensure that device standards, like Service-oriented Device Point-of-care Interoperability (SDPi), are compatible across different global frameworks, HL7 said.
They'll also use Gemini's testing tools to prove healthcare devices and systems meet high-fidelity data standards critical for AI and safety-critical systems.
Participants will attend FHIR communication testing events, where they will connect their physical devices or software to others' and pilot interoperability workflows in clinical settings, including intensive care units and home-based care environments.
