Anyone in here have lis-link experience?

toodles45 10 years ago in DDS updated by Jeff Peterson 9 years ago 1

At the beginning of integrating a middleware which I would prefer not to write a driver myself per one of the focuses that OpenICE is trying to get rid of. Does anyone have any suggestions or experience integrating/facing with this software? I have not seen the lab end integrated into OpenICE which I hope can come soon... If I can help integrated that aspect it is probably bigger than the medical device conundrum.

Hello,


I'm not familiar with lis-link. Google tells me it is India's Largest Social Network for Library Professionals (http://lislinks.com/) but I don't think that is what you're referring to. :)

In general, lab equipment and lab software is currently out of scope for OpenICE. There are other protocols and standards that would be better suited for lab data such as HL7 FHIR, for example. There is a concept of a diagnostic report (https://www.hl7.org/fhir/diagnosticreport.html) that would probably take care of most lab data transactions. There are undoubtably other proprietary interfaces to lab systems as well.


Thanks,

Jeff
