EHR standards

Hello dear collegues! I have one very important for me problem. May be some body knows how to relief it. I have my electronic health database for the Department of arrythmology where I work. This program works and developed for already more than 5 years. It is maden in Russian. Now I want to confirm it into the international format, i.e. I want to have a possibility to change by information with collegues in other countries (may be You?). For it I must Know international standards of saving and transporting af medical data. Do anybody knows what standards are there in such databases building?
Thanks very much for helping. Maxim.

Recently, our solution has been sought after by facilities in other countries. At this point, we're also looking to integrate our solution with several languages. You can read more about our solution by visiting our blog, but I am responding because I am happy to see these solutions become more common in our medical communities worldwide.

Within the International Standards Organization, there is a health informatics committee that is charged with coordinating development of international standards in health informatics. I am currently participating in an exercise in Kenya where we are revewing some of those standards to ensure that they are locally applicable and appropriate for our country. I am happy to share with you my experience as the process progresses.; ▶ Reply to This
