mHealth4Afrika: Supporting Standards Based Integration of Medical Sensor Data.

mHealth4Afrika has introduced the use of CE approved medical sensors at the point of care in primary healthcare facilities in Africa as part of an integrated platform supporting primary health care services. This paper shares insights into the standards-based architecture and HL7 FHIR service developed to support data transfer from sensors with proprietary standards to populate the mHealth4Afrika electronic patient record via custom Android and Windows applications. The current iteration is being validated in healthcare facilities in Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi and South Africa.
