Summary :

The aim of SIR-FMD project is to implement an information system for the French Fibromuscular Dysplasia Registry. This project is a partnership between the Department of Genetics and Reference Centre for Rare Vascular Diseases at the Georges Pompidou European Hospital in Paris and the Medical Informatics and Knowledge Engineering Laboratory of Inserm. The existing data was dispersed in numerous databases, which had been created independently. These databases have different structures and contain data of diverse quality.
The project aims to provide generic solutions for the management of the communication of medical data.

The secondary objective is to demonstrate the applicability of these generic solutions in the field of rare diseases (RD) in an operational context.

The construction of the French FMD registry was a multistep process. A secure platform has been available since the beginning of November 2013. The medical records of 471 patients from the initial dataset provided by the HEGP-Paris, France have been included, and are accessible from a secure user account. Users are organized into a collaborative group, and can access patient groups. Each electronic patient record contains more than 2,200 items. The problem of semantic interoperability has become one of the major challenges for the development of applications requiring the sharing and reuse of data. The information system component of the SIR-FMD project has a direct impact on the standardisation of coding of rare diseases and thereby contributes to the development of e-Health.
