Introduction

​The Godt begynt™ project - “children and young people in Agder” - is about children and young people having the best possible health in their everyday lives, and that health nurses in the health stations and schools can work based on the best available knowledge to better help everyone.

The goal of the research aspects of the project is to gain more knowledge about how children and young people in Agder are doing, and to improve the services. Godt begynt™ facilitates:

  • Knowledge-based assessment of children and young people’s growth, development, mental health and quality of life for use as decision support in the services, and that this knowledge can be put together and used for the best interests of the child.
  • Overview of how height / weight, general and socio-emotional development, mental health and quality of life are distributed in the child and adolescent population.
  • To investigate the experiences of health nurses, parents, children and young people with structured and digital mapping tools.
  • To investigate how the tools affect work processes and assessments and contribute to previous knowledge-based measures and collaboration.
  • Systematic development of services and measures based on digital innovation and application of structured and quality-assured data.

A Norwegian description of the project ca be found at https://www.godtbegynt.no/

The overall project is run by the University in Agder in collaboration with Agder county municipalities.

Platform and integrations

The Egde Health Platform provides the patient data backend, clinic admininstration, secure and compliant data storage and authentication for the Godt begynt service. A HAPI FHIR server is used for the implementation. The Egde Health Gateway provides integration between the FHIR backend and the following services:

  • Checkware which is used by health stations to deliver questionnaires to children/youth, parents and teachers. The. interface to Checkware is SOAP/XML
  • The Norwegian national personal identity service for healthcare Persontjenesten for look up of individual national IDs and names. Integration is through Norwegian Health Network (NHN).
  • Municipal health record systems (electronic patient journals) via standard XML data exchange via NHN. Target platforms are CGM, Visma and Infodoc.
  • GeoNorge for county and municipality names and details.
  • Identity and Access Management (IAM) is provided by Egde’s IAM service via ID-Porten.

This Implementation Guide

The Egde implementation in the Godt begynt project is a control app that allows nurses and teachers to setup appointments for children and youth throughout their development. This starts with individual mapping of a child’s physical, social and mental development from 6 months to the end of school. It uses individual health check sessions during the early years and class-based sessions in later eyars each backed up by standardised questionnaires that go to children, parents/guardians and teachers as appropriate to the age group of the child.
