DYNAMIC TWO-STAGE CLINICAL DATA ARCHIVING AND RETRIEVAL SOLUTION
First Claim
1. A method for dynamic, two-stage clinical data archiving, said method comprising:
- copying clinical data from a primary datastore to a staging datastore, wherein non-clinical data is retained at the primary datastore and not passed to the staging datastore;
copying the clinical data from the staging datastore to an archive datastore; and
deleting the clinical data from the staging datastore after the clinical data has been copied to the archive datastore.

Abstract
Certain embodiments of the present invention provide methods and systems for dynamic, two-stage archiving and/or retrieval of clinical data. Certain embodiments provide a method for dynamic, two-stage clinical data archiving. The method includes copying clinical data from a primary datastore to a staging datastore, wherein non-clinical data is retained at the primary datastore and not passed to the staging datastore. The method further includes copying the clinical data from the staging datastore to an archive datastore. The method also includes deleting the clinical data from the staging datastore after the clinical data has been copied to the archive datastore. In certain embodiments, data may be restored from the archive datastore to the primary datastore via the staging datastore similar to the archiving process described above.

12. A dynamic, two-stage clinical data archiving and restoration system, said system comprising:
-
a primary datastore storing clinical data, demographic data and application-specific data for a patient; an archive datastore archiving clinical data from the primary datastore for later retrieval; a staging datastore storing and relaying clinical data between the primary datastore and the archive datastore, the staging datastore retaining the clinical data until at least one of an archive operation and a restore operation is complete between the primary datastore and the archive datastore; and a processor operating in conjunction with the primary datastore, the staging datastore, and the archive datastore, the processor adapted to archive clinical data by; copying clinical data from the primary datastore to the staging datastore, wherein non-clinical data is retained at the primary datastore and not passed to the staging datastore; copying the clinical data from the staging datastore to the archive datastore; and deleting the clinical data from the staging datastore after the clinical data has been copied to the archive datastore. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A computer readable medium having a set of instructions for execution on a computer, said set of instructions comprising:
-
an archive routine controlling a primary datastore, a staging datastore, and an archive datastore, wherein the archive routine; a) copies clinical data from the primary datastore to the staging datastore, wherein non-clinical data is retained at the primary datastore and not passed to the staging datastore, b) copies the clinical data from the staging datastore to an archive datastore, and c) deletes the clinical data from the staging datastore after the clinical data has been copied to the archive datastore; and a restore routine controlling the primary datastore, the staging datastore, and the archive datastore, wherein the restore routine; a) identifies clinical data to be restored from the archive datastore, b) copies the identified clinical data from the archive datastore to the staging datastore, c) copies the identified clinical data from the staging datastore to the primary datastore, and d) deletes the identified clinical data from the staging datastore.
