METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR COMPRESSED FAST HEALTHCARE INTEROPERABILITY RESOURCE (FHIR) FILE SIMILARITY SEARCHING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240233890 titled 'METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR COMPRESSED FAST HEALTHCARE INTEROPERABILITY RESOURCE (FHIR) FILE SIMILARITY SEARCHING
The abstract describes a method for generating a compressed Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) file using a file compression system.
- Receiving an uncompressed FHIR file
- Extracting a predetermined plurality of different resource types from the uncompressed file
- Generating a fixed-length FHIR patient profile fingerprint from the extracted resource types, consisting of a fixed-length floating-point value feature vector with sub-feature vectors representing different resource types
- Compressing the generated fixed-length FHIR patient profile fingerprint using a trained compression algorithm to create a compressed FHIR fingerprint
- Storing the compressed FHIR fingerprint in a database
Potential Applications: - Healthcare data management systems - Electronic health records (EHR) systems - Health information exchange platforms
Problems Solved: - Efficient storage and retrieval of healthcare data - Streamlining interoperability between different healthcare systems
Benefits: - Reduced storage space requirements - Faster data transmission and retrieval - Improved data security and privacy
