The Need for Data Standards and Implementation Policies to Integrate Insulin Delivery Data Into the Electronic Health Record.
Academic Article
Overview
abstract
Integration of insulin dosing data into the electronic health record (EHR), combined with other patient-generated health care data, would facilitate the use of wirelessly connected insulin delivery systems, including smart insulin pens, insulin pumps, and advanced hybrid closed-loop systems. In 2022, Diabetes Technology Society developed the Integration of Continuous Glucose Monitoring Data into the EHR (iCoDE) Project, which is the first consensus standard for integrating data from a wearable device into the EHR. The iCoDE Standard is a comprehensive guide for any health care delivery organization or hospital for automatically integrating continuous glucose monitoring data into the EHR. Diabetes Technology Society is following iCoDE with the Integration of Connected Diabetes Device Data into the EHR (iCoDE-2) Project, to similarly provide guidance for integrating insulin delivery data into the EHR alongside continuous glucose monitoring data.
