Stream: storage for FHIR
Topic: filtering interpretation of Observations
Benedikt S. Vogler (May 31 2021 at 17:57):
Hey guys,
we are storing some Observations in FHIR. Some machine provided assessments of the data is written into the interpretation field e.g. analysis of ECG data. Now I want to filter by the interpretation field using the REST API. However FHIR does not include a query parameter for Observations filtering the interpretation field. What is the best way to solve this problem? Do I have to write a custom query with _query? Or use _content?

Just add support for a new parameter on the server. That's entirely in line with the FHIR spec.

FHIR-28254. I am hoping that will be approved.
René Spronk (Jun 11 2021 at 09:23):
Perhaps, or perhaps not. But one can define server-specific search parameters that need not be mentioned in the spec at all. That's up to a server developer to decide.

Thanks Paul for linking it. So I can keep an eye on that.
