Introduction to Digital Health: FHIR ShortHand Exercise

Preparation

  1. Install nodejs

    OR

    • Using conda (create new environment named "sushi" first):
    conda create -n sushi
conda activate sushi
conda install -c conda-forge nodejs

  2. Install sushi

    npm install -g fsh-sushi

  3. Optional: Install VSCode and VSCode extension for FSH

  4. Clone this repository or run sushi --init and modify the generated sushi-config.yml to use fhirVersion: 5.0.0.

Exercise 1

Represent the following recommendation using FHIR resources:

Ivermectin soll nicht zur COVID-19-Behandlung verabreicht werden.

(read as: "COVID-19 Patienten sollen kein Ivermectin erhalten")

Recommendation #8 from the "S3-Leitlinie Empfehlungen zur stationären Therapie von Patienten mit COVID-19 – Living Guideline"

Steps

  • Identify Population and Intervention parts
  • Identify appropriate concepts in standardized vocabularies
  • Create an instance of EvidenceVariable for the population part (look up the link to identify required fields)
  • Create an instance of ActivityDefinition for the intervention part (look up the link to identify required fields)
  • Link population to intervention (hint: look at subject[x])

Create a file named exercise01.fsh containing both instances.

Exercise 2

Specify a simple guideline representation format by creating profiles of the following resources:

EvidenceVariable (Population)

  • Profile name: Population
  • Allow only codeableConcepts from SNOMED CT for characteristics
    • Disallow all other types
    • Hint: bind value to [codeableConcept].coding.system to fix a system, e.g.: 
      * jurisdiction.coding.system = {insert code system identifier}
    • SNOMED CT's codesystem URI is http://snomed.info/sct
  • Make title and characteristic.description required

ActivityDefinition (Intervention)

  • Profile name: InterventionMedicationAdministration
  • Require productCodeableConcept and allow only SNOMED CT terms
  • Make subjectCanonical required and allow only your profile of EvidenceVariable for subjectCanonical
    • Hint: use the Canonical() function for referencing; lookup only keyword in the FSH reference

Create a file named exercise02.fsh containing both profiles.

Exercise 3

  • Use your own profiles to represent the recommendation from exercise 1
  • Create a file named exercise03.fsh containing both instances
