Getting ready for the European Health Data Space (EHDS): IDERHA's plan to align with the latest EHDS requirements for the secondary use of health data.

Objective: The European Health Data Space (EHDS) shapes the digital transformation of healthcare in Europe. The EHDS regulation will also accelerate the use of health data for research, innovation, policy-making, and regulatory activities for secondary use of data (known as EHDS2). The Integration of heterogeneous Data and Evidence towards Regulatory and HTA Acceptance (IDERHA) project builds one of the first pan-European health data spaces in alignment with the EHDS2 requirements, addressing lung cancer as a pilot.

Patient-Generated Health Data Interoperability Through Master Patient Index: The DH-Convener Approach.

Patient-Generated Health Data (PGHD), such as data provided by wearable devices, hold promise to improve health outcomes. However, to improve clinical decision-making, PGHD should be integrated or linked with Electronic Health Records (EHRs). Typically, PGHD data are collected and stored as Personal Health Records (PHRs), outside EHR systems.
