Working in healthcare IT as a young developer, especially on InterSystems TrakCare, you quickly realize one thing: it’s not just about HL7 messages or backend integrations. A huge part of making TrakCare work smoothly for hospitals comes down to how it’s configured, customized, and supported on the application side.

Finishing my previous example for multiple IRIS instances, I tried
to compose a local single instance version. The step from the external
Python app to a version using embedded Python seemed to be obvious.
This was a wrong assumption, as some Python libraries just refused installation
into my local Windows-based environment.

⏯️ Healthcare AI Agent Platform

An AI Agent Platform specifically built for the healthcare industry that requires no technical background to utilize. By simply defining a goal or initiative, a swarm of AI agents will conduct operations to achieve the stated end goal and measure their own efficacy along the way to continuously improve. Healthcare organizations today are facing a myriad of challenges that impact financial and clinical performance. These problems are well known, and there is a general consensus on how many of them can be alleviated with AI. However, healthcare organizations face unique challenges in implementing AI:

  • HIPAA/Regulatory compliance - Data quality & accessibility - Embedding AI into current clinical workflows, i.e. integrating AI in such a way that it does not require clinicians to re-orient their processes. It should complement existing workflows, not disrupt them.
  • Implementation cost/high technical barrier of entry – staff needed to build and maintain AI processes can become expensive
  • Ambiguous ROI calculation – careful considerations must be made to properly measure and understand the efficacy of AI integrations. InterSystems is uniquely positioned to address these challenges, enabling healthcare organizations to implement AI with minimal burden.

Is it possible to audit code changes in a namespace?

Ideally what we'd like to be able to do is check which classes were compiled (or deleted) in a time period, eg in last 3 months, and which user made those changes. Even better would be an audit of what those changes were, but that's less important (for us, as we can probably find that information in other ways).

We are attempting to send HL7 messages over to CBOARD NetMenu over HTTP using SSL. We set this up using the EnsLib.HL7.Operation.HTTPOperation adapter. When we attempt to send the message we are receiving

MSH|^~\&|||DIETOE|A6M0|202505131437||ACK^HTTP^415|00|P|2.1 MSA|AE|9165602|HTTP (N)ACK 'HTTP/1.1 415 Unsupported Media Type'

Hey everyone.

I'm currently looking at a process where we're utilising the Class Ens.StreamContainer, and was looking to do some deletions outside of any purge routines.

Having been burned before, I wanted to make sure that deleting the container also deletes the contents within.

From looking in the class, the %OnDelete ClassMethod appears to be removing an index from a search table and nothing more.

Hello, I have a problem with a call and I would need some help.

When I call an API with the SendFormDataArray method of the EnsLib.HTTP.OutboundAdapter adapter, I pass it a %Net.HttpRequest object and I receive the following error:

ERROR #5002: ObjectScript error: <SUBSCRIPT>MatchSuffix+1^%Net.HttpRequest.1 ^%qPublicSuffix("")

I have correctly entered the url in my business operation and I pass it in the last parameter of the SendFormDataArray method. Do you have any idea, please?

Hi Community,

Sometimes you may need to merge multiple accounts or simply update the email address you use across the different portals in the InterSystems Developer Ecosystem. Since each portal works a little differently, here’s a guide to help you through the process.

Change your email

If you’d like to use a different email (for example, use a work email instead of a personal one, or vice versa), here’s how to update it across the portals:

1. Update your email in InterSystems SSO. To do this:

  • follow the prompts on screen to change your email

Change %Response.ContentLength

Hey everyone,
Might be a stupid question, but i was trying to set the ContentLength of the %response object in my website.
In different places (like the onPreHttp / onPostHttp etc) but none seems to work.

The reason behind it is to send a more accurate representation of the actual data I send, instead of having the overhead of the broker that adds more characters , I want the exact length of the response accounting only for the data that I actually returned.

Recently, I replaced my old laptop with a new one and had to migrate all my data. I was looking for a guide but couldn’t find anything that explained in detail how to migrate server connections from InterSystems Studio and Visual Studio Code from one PC to another. Simply reinstalling the tools is not enough, and migrating all the connections manually seemed like a waste of time. In the end, I managed to solve the problem, and this article explains how.

I seem to remember making this work before, but I'm not having any luck digging up examples.

I've defined some custom properties for a business operation that could definitely benefit from having popup descriptions available in the Production Configuration. I have triple-slash comments before each property that do just that in the source. I thought those provided the text for the popup descriptions when clicking on the property name, but apparently not.

Any thoughts?

⏯️ Closing the Scientific Knowledge Gap with AI

For venture capitalists (VCs), evaluating research can be challenging. While researchers typically possess years of training and deep expertise in their field, the VCs tasked with assessing their work often lack domain-specific knowledge. This can lead to incomplete understanding of scientific data and an inability to direct organizational initiatives. To solve this problem, we have designed a solution that empowers VCs with AI-driven due diligence: ResearchExplorer. ResearchExplorer is powered by InterSystems IRIS and GPT-4o to help analyze private biomedical research alongside public sources like PubMed using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). Users submit natural language queries, and the system returns structured insights, head-to-head research comparisons, and AI-generated summaries. This allows users to bridge expertise gaps while securely protecting proprietary data.

Profiling CCD Documents with LEAD North’s CCD Data Profiler
Ever opened a CCD and been greeted by a wall of tangled XML? You’re not alone. Despite being a core format for clinical data exchange, CCD's are notoriously dense, verbose, and unfriendly to the human eye. For developers and analysts trying to validate their structure or extract meaningful insights, navigating these documents can feel more like archaeology than engineering.
