The SynEx Project SynEx is a 2-year European
Health Telematics project that addresses the
issues of the provision and use of multimedia
patient records across large enterprise-wide
networks.
It brings together
leading-edge European work on federated
healthcare records (Synapses), healthcare
information systems architectures (HISA),
terminology services (GALEN) and decision support
formalisms (ProForma).
SynEx will
consolidate, harmonise and integrate their
results and apply them in a form that makes them
ready to be packaged into products. The focus of
the project will be the deployment of intuitive
health care services to support evidence-based
clinical practice in a range of settings across
Europe.
SynEx intends to
become an Industry-led Standard for shared and
distributed health records on heterogeneous
systems. Based on this standard, SynEx aims to
produce a portfolio of products for commercial
use that are generic, modular, and re-usable.
