How to Structure and Search Clinical Records using FHIR

Details

This document demonstrates how 'findings' (Befund) data from electronic health records are managed using the FHIR standard. Observations are linked to a patient and managed as continuous medical records. The text explains that search requests require using a specific patient ID and implementing paging to retrieve multiple observation data items (KBV_PR_AW_Observation_Befund). Furthermore, retrieving individual observation data requires making a read request using the unique identifier. The provided sample code illustrates the structure of an FHIR Observation resource, including its ID, metadata (profile information), text content, and classification based on standard code systems like LOINC, as well as specific measured values (e.g., blood pressure). This serves as a technical implementation example aimed at enhancing medical data interoperability.
