Discussion

• IHE F2F in Ghent Belgium – Tentative dates are September 8-10
  • Depends on COVID restrictions
  • Mary to send out google poll of how many can travel to Europe – for two weeks
  • Need to follow the country’s vaccination rules

• SET
  • Publication of SET for comment is available
  • Publication date for public review is July 31

• LAW
  • Ralf presented on a LAW update that is needed:
    • IHE LAW profile does not allow the sending of Alternate Identifiers together with normal identifiers, but LOINC is recommending it.
    • Options to update were discussed and the following was recommended and agreed upon:

• • Comments: Reviewed the CP – chapter 2.3.1 might need to be moved. Don’t want to do that. So that is why CP is written the way it is.
  • Adopted 2.9 – can allow second alternate ID; Ralf has people already asking him to use it.
  • Riki will review the CP and get it published for comment.
  • There are calls with DICON on specimen mapper on Mondays from 1-2pm Central US
  • https://confluence.hl7.org/display/OO/2021-07-12+Specimen

• New proposal Lantana was presented by John Spinosa: An Initiative to exchange RBC phenotyping information using FHIR IG
  • There are not many interfaces between blood bank donor centers and information systems
  • The need and importance were presented:

• • The proposal is for Lantana to work with partners to
    • Develop a standard for exchange of blood product genotyping and phenotyping information for BECS and BBLIS incorporation
    • Expand and convene a group of key stake holders to launch this work and support it with domain expertise
    • Leverage the momentum of the core group and standards development project to procure funding that will carry through feasibility (Connectathon) testing, ballot, ballot reconciliation and publication.
    • The current and supporting efforts to date include the San Diego blood bank, HaploGNX.
    • There will be presentations on this effort at HL7 working groups
    • Lantana is requesting feedback, information on related efforts, working group sponsorship and stakeholder participation.
  • It was recommended the Lantana set up a webpage about the project that can be put on the IHE PaLM webpage.

• DPIA update: On a joint call with DICOM WG 26, there was a decision made that an SAC segment will be added to the DPIA profile, but the identifier can be the same as the parent container and/or ignored if the glass slide and tissue on the slide have the same ID. No objections from LIS or Scanner vendors in the end; so there was consensus.

• SET update: The document is updated for review.

• Rad/Path Correlation Profile update. Alex will send a new link to the website: (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nxlMJTwmqkJ90ssVlKfaIOPIFjv7j0v7/view?usp=sharing)
  • Completed first draft of five use cases.
  • Sending concordance report transaction being worked on
