Topic: Notation for references?
Tim Berezny (Mar 07 2018 at 01:44):
In a written document, what is the notation i would use for elements in a references resources? For example, we have ServiceRequest.PatientInstruction, which is simple enough to express. But what about ServiceRequest.patient.subject>reference(patient.birthdate)? What would be the proper notation for that?
I want to put some FHIR fields into a fillable/submittable PDF form and am trying to determine the best notation for naming the fillable fields.
(also, for when a reference goes two or more levels deep in the tree)

You're trying to define the mapping? You can use FHIRPath. So ServiceRequest.patient.subject.resolve().birthdate or ServiceRequest.patient.subject.resolve().ofType(Patient).birthdateif you want to be super tight.

Yes, perfect, thanks.

@Lloyd McKenzie @Tim Berezny
Should 'patient.subject' be in that that path ?
Shouldn't it be the following?
ServiceRequest.subject.resolve().ofType(Patient).birthdate

Yes, sorry.
