IHE Domains are responsible for the development and maintenance of the IHE Technical Frameworks that document the Integration Profiles. Each Domain manages Integration Profiles in a particular part of healthcare. For convenient reference, each Domain has a short acronym. A general overview of the annual timeline of domain committee activities can be found here: Domain Milestone Dates.
The currently active IHE domains are:
- IHE Cardiology (CARD)
- IHE Dental (DENT)
- IHE Endoscopy
- IHE Eye Care (EYECARE)
- IHE IT Infrastructure (ITI)
- IHE Laboratory (LAB)
- IHE Anatomic Pathology (ANAPATH)
- IHE Patient Care Coordination (PCC)
- IHE Patient Care Device (PCD)
- IHE Pharmacy (PHARM)
- IHE Quality, Research and Public Health (QRPH)
- IHE Radiation Oncology (RO)
- IHE Radiology (RAD)
New Domains are added as more fields of healthcare adopt the IHE process.
Each domain carries out its work in two Committees.
The Planning Committee for a domain:
- Recruits vendors of relevant information systems and users with clinical and operational experience
- Develops long-term goals and roadmap
- Identifies integration and information sharing problems and priorities
- Gathers and reviews proposals for new problems/profiles.
- Selects proposals for technical/effort evaluation by the Technical Committee
- Approves proposals for Profile development by the Technical Committee
- Develops educational materials for the domain and profiles
The Technical Committee for a domain:
- Recruits vendors of relevant information systems and users with clinical and operational experience
- Assesses the feasibility and estimated effort of selected profile proposals
- Builds consensus on the appropriate standards-based solutions to approved proposals
- Develops Integration Profiles to document the solutions in detail
- Maintains the Technical Framework for the domain
Each domain is sponsored by a professional society.
The Sponsor for a domain:
- Oversees domain committee meetings
- Recruits domain professionals to act as clinical advisors for the domain committees
- Hosts or arranges facilities for meetings and teleconferences of the domain committees
- Serves as secretariat for the domain committees
- Promotes the activities of the domain by communicating to key stakeholders (including membership of the sponsoring organization) through publications, demonstrations and other methods at its disposal.
- ...
Coordination among domains is the responsibility of the Domain Coordination Committee, comprising the co-chairs from each of the domain planning and technical committees.
