Examples
In the realm of oncology, the standardized capture of diagnostic, treatment, and outcome data is paramount. FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) provides a compelling solution through its Questionnaire resource, tailor-made to document information in a structured and interoperable manner. Recognizing the critical role of synoptic reporting in cancer care—a method that ensures consistent and comprehensive documentation—we've compiled a set of FHIR Questionnaire examples specifically geared towards cancer synoptic reporting.
These examples demonstrate how the FHIR framework can be adeptly employed to encapsulate vital oncological data, ranging from tumor characteristics to treatment modalities. For oncologists, pathologists, and health IT professionals aiming to enhance the quality and consistency of cancer reporting, these examples serve as both a guide and a starting point for technical implementation.
FHIR Questionnaires
These FHIR Questionnaires can be downloaded as JSON files and viewed and edited using any compatible editor. We recommend using the NLM Form Builder (https://lhcformbuilder.nlm.nih.gov/).
Also, SNOMED International provides a utility to store questionnaires in a standard FHIR server and to validate the SNOMED Terminology Bindings to manage updates of SNOMED versions:
