The demands for information from these visits require interoperable data exchange standards. While multiple data exchange specifications are in use, none have undergone rigorous standards review. This paper describes the creation and balloting of the Health Level Seven (HL7) Data Elements for Emergency Department Systems (DEEDS).<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Methods Existing data exchange specifications were collected and organized into categories reflecting the workflow of emergency care. The concepts were then mapped to existing standards for vocabulary, data types, and the HL7 information model. The HL7 community then processed the specification through the normal balloting process addressing all comments and concerns. The resulting specification was then submitted for publication as an HL7 informational standard.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Results The resulting specification contains 525 concepts related to emergency care required for operations and reporting to external agencies. An additional 200 of the most commonly ordered laboratory tests were included. Each concept was given a unique identifier and mapped to Logical Observation Identifiers, Names, and Codes (LOINC). HL7 standard data types were applied.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>Discussion The HL7 DEEDS specification represents the first set of common ED related data elements to undergo rigorous standards development. The availability of this standard will contribute to improved interoperability of emergency care data.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jamia\/ocu040","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,3,14]],"date-time":"2015-03-14T01:33:09Z","timestamp":1426296789000},"page":"529-535","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Standard for improving emergency information interoperability: the HL7 data elements for emergency department systems"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"James C","family":"McClay","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Emergency Medicine, University of Nebraska Medical Center, 981150 Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, NE 68198-1150, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Peter J","family":"Park","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Emergency Medicine, Naval Medical Center San Diego (NMCSD), 4170 Norman Scott Rd., Bldg 3232, San Diego, CA 92136-5597, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mark G","family":"Janczewski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medical Networks, L.L.C., 438 Holly Road, Annandale, VA 22003-1266, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Laura Heermann","family":"Langford","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Homer Warner Center for Informatics Research, Intermountain Healthcare, South Office Building, 2nd Floor, 5171 South Cottonwood Street, Salt Lake City, UT 84107, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,3,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"2020110613025783400_ocu040-B1","volume-title":"Hospital-Based Emergency Care: At the Breaking Point","author":"Committee on the Future of Emergency Care in the United States Health System.
