EHR

Management of EHRs. Actions upon resources of this group are also formally described in the I_EHR_SERVICE Abstract Service Model interface.

Create EHR

Create a new EHR with an auto-generated identifier.

An EHR_STATUS resource needs to be always created and committed in the new EHR. This resource MAY be also supplied by the client as the request body. If not supplied, a default EHR_STATUS will be used by the service with following attributes:

  • is_queryable: true
  • is_modifiable: true
  • subject: a PARTY_SELF object

All other required EHR attributes and resources will be automatically created as needed by the EHR creation semantics.

header Parameters
Prefer
string
Default: return=minimal
Enum: "return=representation" "return=minimal"

Request header to indicate the preference over response details. The response will contain the entire resource when the Prefer header has a value of return=representation.

Request Body schema: application/json
optional

An EHR_STATUS resource MAY be also supplied by the client as the request body.

Get EHR by subject id

Retrieve the EHR with the specified subject_id and subject_namespace.

These subject parameters will be matched against EHR's EHR_STATUS.subject.external_ref.id.value and EHR_STATUS.subject.external_ref.namespace values.

query Parameters
subject_id
required
string

An EHR_STATUS resource needs to be always created and committed in the new EHR. This resource MAY be also supplied by the client as the request body. If not supplied, a default EHR_STATUS will be used by the service with following attributes:

  • is_queryable: true

Get COMPOSITION

Retrieves a version of the COMPOSITION identified by uid_based_id and associated with the EHR identified by ehr_id.

The uid_based_id can take a form of an OBJECT_VERSION_ID identifier taken from VERSION.uid.value (i.e. a version_uid), or a form of a HIER_OBJECT_ID identifier taken from VERSIONED_OBJECT.uid.value (i.e. a versioned_object_uid). The former is used to retrieve a specific known version of the COMPOSITION (e.g. one identified by 8849182c-82ad-4088-a07f-48ead4180515::openEHRSys.example.com::1), whereas the later (e.g. an identifier like 8849182c-82ad-4088-a07f-48ead4180515) is be used to retrieve a version from the version container whenever the version_tree_id is unknown or irrelevant (such as when most recent version is requested).

When the uid_based_id has the form of a HIER_OBJECT_ID, if the version_at_time is supplied, retrieves the version extant at specified time, otherwise retrieves the latest COMPOSITION version.

See Resource identification for more details about the identifiers usage and meaning.

version_at_time
string
Example: version_at_time=2015-01-20T19:30:22.765+01:00
