Slices

This structure defines the following Slices:

  • The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Observation.identifier
  • The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Observation.code.coding
  • The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Observation.performer
  • The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Observation.component

 

Other representations of profile: CSV, Excel, Schematron

Notes:

Interactions:

This resource only supports search - there is no GET [base]/Observation/[id] read-by-id operation, and no create or update through the standard REST interface.

Search Parameters:

  1. SHALL support searching Observation using the documentId search parameter:

    GET [base]/Observation?documentId=[id]

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/Observation?documentId=1009500

    Implementation Notes: documentId identifies the DIPS clinical document (journal entry) the vital sign was recorded in, not the Observation's own resource id. Fetches a bundle containing every vital sign Observation recorded in that document whose type matches this profile ([how to search by string]).

  2. At least one of patient, fhirId, externalFhirId or documentId is required, or the search is rejected with a 422 error. Of these, only documentId currently returns matching results - patient, fhirId and externalFhirId are accepted by this validation but the search behind them is not yet implemented, so a request using only one of them returns an empty bundle rather than an error or a result.

  3. The standard _profile search parameter can also be appended to a request:

    GET [base]/Observation?documentId=[id]&_profile=[profile]

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/Observation?documentId=1009500&_profile=DIPSVitalSignsObservationNews2Score

    Implementation Notes: _profile is not currently read by this endpoint - it has no effect on the result, whether or not it's present, and whichever profile is passed. It is accepted here only because it is a standard FHIR search parameter the underlying framework parses generically; nothing in the vital sign search code consults it. The set of values it is meant to take, once implemented, is the 13 DIPSVitalSignsObservation* profile ids - see the "FHIR VitalSign Observation" section of Documentation for the full list.

Operation: $SaveExtData

  1. SHALL support linking an externally recorded value to a DIPS clinical document:

    POST [base]/Observation/$SaveExtData

    Example:

     POST [base]/Observation/$SaveExtData
    
     <Parameters xmlns="http://hl7.org/fhir">
         <parameter>
             <name value="FhirId"/>
             <valueString value="[fhir resource id]"/>
         </parameter>
         <parameter>
             <name value="ExternalId"/>
             <valueString value="18730-7773-External_Identifier_value"/>
         </parameter>
         <parameter>
             <name value="Source"/>
             <valueString value="MetaVision"/>
         </parameter>
         <parameter>
             <name value="JournalId"/>
             <valueString value="1009500"/>
         </parameter>
         <parameter>
             <name value="IssuedTime"/>
             <valueDateTime value="2026-03-03T11:00:00+02:00"/>
         </parameter>
         <parameter>
             <name value="VersionID"/>
             <valueString value="1"/>
         </parameter>
     </Parameters>
    

    Implementation Notes: JournalId (the operation's name for documentId) is required and must be numeric, and must identify a document that already exists in DIPS - the operation records a mapping from that document to an externally sourced value, it does not create the document. ExternalId and Source together identify the external record being linked; a request repeating a JournalId/Source pair already mapped is rejected with a 400 error.
