|In thinking strategically of future work and profiles for IHE Lab and IHE AP, and in the spirit of further collaboration, the co-chairs from IHE AP, IHE Lab, and the IHE Lab/AP Secretariat, recommend a consolidation of the two working groups into one group.  We think a merger is beneficial  to both groups, as well as being a streamlined process that the Board of IHE International will appreciate.  We already are starting to see a merged effort through the  “Laboratory Device Automation” reengineering project that has software vendors involved from both domains. We anticipate the future will continue to see a blurring between the two domains and want to be positioned to best address emerging needs.  The new domain could be called the “ IHE  Pathology and Laboratory Medicine” domain or something similar to reflect all aspects of the laboratory.  We also suggest that all co-chairs be retained to assist in leading discussions focused on one area or another and to continue on work already in progress. 
 +
In anticipation of this merger,  we recommend that an additional day be added to the already planned IHE Lab meeting in Paris from May 19-21.  The joint IHE AP/Lab meeting then will be from Tuesday 19th 9am to Friday 22nd at noon.  Please let us know what you think of this recommendation. We will be posting logistics for the May meeting in Paris soon.

The IVD Industry Connectivity Consortium (IICC) is an organization founded by the top worldwide IVD manufacturers to catalyze worldwide modernization of standards to reduce the costs and inefficiencies associated with device interfacing.  Founding members of IICC include leading IVD manufacturers (Abbott Diagnostics, Beckman Coulter, Becton Dickinson, bioMerieux, Ortho Clinical Diagnostics, Roche Diagnostics, and Siemens Healthcare) and two IT companies (Data Innovations and Systelab Technologies). Subsequent to the founding of IICC, the following companies have become full members:  Orchard Software (IT). IICC believes that IHE’s LDA integration profile represents the best starting point for defining a worldwide profile, and recommends commissioning a project to extend this integration profile. The IHE Laboratory Domain approved moving forward with the IICC Profile Proposal for the next generation Laboratory Device Automation for the 2010-2011 cycle. This wiki will document this progress.

'''As a Laboratorian, Pathologist, or Advocate'''
  
''The Laboratory Committee is preparing the 2.1 Final Text version of the LAB Technical Framework, providing precise description of microbiology messaging in LTW profile, in line (for the result part) with the "Lab result to ambulatory EHR" implementation guide produced by HL7 LAB SIG, and refining the content of a microbio order placing message, with detailed specimen collection data. On the other hand, this Final Text version will integrate the Public Health Lab Report initially drafted in PCC domain, and in doing so, shall describe XD-LAB CDA lab report with more content modules, following the layout refined by the PCC technical committee. <BR>This Final Text revision shall also process and integrate as much as possible new accepted CPs coming from the 2008 connectathons in NA, Europe and Japan.<BR>The committee is also drafting three new supplements, as mentioned in the table above.<BR> Contact the [[Laboratory Technical Committee| Technical Committee]] if you would like to participate, or watch for [[Comments| Public Comment]] supplement drafts in mid-Year 2008.''

WARNING: As of January 4, 2016 this page is deprecated and superseded by the Pathology and Laboratory Medicine (PaLM) domain page



IHE Laboratory Domain addresses information sharing and workflow related to in vitro diagnostic testing in clinical laboratories as well as point of care testing. The IHE Laboratory Domain was established in 2003 and manages the Laboratory Profiles and the Laboratory Technical Framework. We are actively soliciting qualified experts from the healthcare profession and healthcare IT industry for ongoing maintenance, new development, and deployment of domain profiles.



Special Announcement In thinking strategically of future work and profiles for IHE Lab and IHE AP, and in the spirit of further collaboration, the co-chairs from IHE AP, IHE Lab, and the IHE Lab/AP Secretariat, recommend a consolidation of the two working groups into one group. We think a merger is beneficial to both groups, as well as being a streamlined process that the Board of IHE International will appreciate. We already are starting to see a merged effort through the “Laboratory Device Automation” reengineering project that has software vendors involved from both domains. We anticipate the future will continue to see a blurring between the two domains and want to be positioned to best address emerging needs. The new domain could be called the “ IHE Pathology and Laboratory Medicine” domain or something similar to reflect all aspects of the laboratory. We also suggest that all co-chairs be retained to assist in leading discussions focused on one area or another and to continue on work already in progress.

In anticipation of this merger, we recommend that an additional day be added to the already planned IHE Lab meeting in Paris from May 19-21. The joint IHE AP/Lab meeting then will be from Tuesday 19th 9am to Friday 22nd at noon. Please let us know what you think of this recommendation. We will be posting logistics for the May meeting in Paris soon.

Sincerely, IHE AP co-chairs, IHE Lab co-chairs, and IHE AP/LAB Secretariat

Current Activity

The IVD Industry Connectivity Consortium (IICC) is an organization founded by the top worldwide IVD manufacturers to catalyze worldwide modernization of standards to reduce the costs and inefficiencies associated with device interfacing. Founding members of IICC include leading IVD manufacturers (Abbott Diagnostics, Beckman Coulter, Becton Dickinson, bioMerieux, Ortho Clinical Diagnostics, Roche Diagnostics, and Siemens Healthcare) and two IT companies (Data Innovations and Systelab Technologies). Subsequent to the founding of IICC, the following companies have become full members: Orchard Software (IT). IICC believes that IHE’s LDA integration profile represents the best starting point for defining a worldwide profile, and recommends commissioning a project to extend this integration profile. The IHE Laboratory Domain approved moving forward with the IICC Profile Proposal for the next generation Laboratory Device Automation for the 2010-2011 cycle. This wiki will document this progress.

Laboratory Analytical Workflow (LAW) A new release was published in 2013


Currently working on the (LCC) - standardizing how to indicate suggested replacement orders from the filler side and requesting follow up work by the placer. More information can be found on the wiki

Laboratory-Clinical Communications(LCC)

How to Participate

As a Laboratorian, Pathologist, or Advocate

Get involved in the planning committee. This is where the clinical problems are discussed and prioritized. The planning committee is an open group and is interested in having your input. Bring us your interoperability problems. You can also help by participating in the HIMSS showcase scenario definitions.

You can do this by:

  1. Request to join our IHE Laboratory Committee Google Group
  2. Attend telephone conferences and face to face meetings
  3. Submit new profile proposals


As a Health IT Implementer

Get involved in the technical committee. Help make sure profiles are feasible and will work for you. Implement the profile, and come experience the IHE Connectathon event. 2011 Connectathon video clip


As a Health IT Buyer

In addition to getting involved in the planning committee, hold your vendors accountable. Put a statement in your RFP that indicates you want the vendor to support the actor in the profile you desire.
