Data Standardization in the Medical Field Through FHIR and FAIR Implementation: A Systematic Review

Abstract

The authors investigate in this paper the current situation of the FHIR resources adoption in order to FAIRify data in the medical research field. By aligning with the FAIR data principles, data becomes easier to share and reuse. This review aims to analyze how integrating the FHIR resources improved the findability, accessibility, interoperability, and reusability of datasets. By searching for the state-of-art situation in this field, we want to emphasize the significant role that FAIR data occupies in the medical research community, by also providing directions for further development and improved interoperability.
