When recieivng a response and calling SendDeferredResponse I get the warning below and no response is sent.

No Return Queue - Unable to send deferred Response to Request 12537165

When the initial request comes in I am calling DeferResponse but the message never goes into a state of Deferred.

How do I resolve this warning and get the response working?

In the previous article, we talked about the flow of data to request the test and receive the results of the requested test. Now let's talk about one of the most important messages of HL7v2 standard.

Every time a receiving application accepts a message and consumes the message data, it is expected to send an ACKnowledgement (ACK) message back to the sending application. The sending application is expected to keep on sending a message until it has received an ACK message. It is done to inform the sending application that its message was successfully received, that it is (not) valid in accordance with HL7 rules and, if it is compliant, that it will be processed at some point.

HL7 (Health Level 7) is a set of technical specifications for computerized exchanges of clinical, financial and administrative data between hospital information systems (HIS). These specifications are variously integrated into the corpus of formal American (ANSI) and international (ISO) standards.

The L7 of HL7 indicates that it is a standard that operates at layer 7, in other words at the application layer, of the OSI model. This means that HL7 does not have to take into account exchange security considerations, or those of message transport (this being ensured by lower-level layers such as SSL/TLS for security or TCP for the transport of data for example). To be more precise, layer 7 supports communications for end-user processes and applications and the presentation of data for user-facing software applications. As the highest layer of the OSI model, and the closest to the end user, layer 7 provides application-specific functions such as identifying communication partners and the quality of service between them, determining resource availability, considering privacy and user authentication, and synchronizing communication, as well as connecting the application to the lower levels of the OSI model.

Returning to the HL7 standard, the HL7 version 2 standard (also known as Pipehat) was originally created in 1989 but is still being used and updated regularly, resulting in versions 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.3.1, 2.4, 2.5, 2.5.1, 2.6, 2.7, 2.7.1, 2.8, 2.8.1, 2.8.2 and 2.9. The v2.x standards are backward compatible (e.g., a message based on version 2.3 will be understood by an application that supports version 2.6) and in higher versions, you will see some fields are left just for it.

Despite it being more than 30 years old, HL7v2 remains the most widely used healthcare interface standard by a large margin according to the HL7.org portal that tells that:

In the previous article, we've seen the structure of one of the most used types of HL7 message - ADT (Admit, Discharge, Transfer) and an example of ADT^A04 with the description of all its fields. Now let's look at another flow of data having to do with ordering and fulfilling the orders of tests. I'm talking about ORM (as of version 2.5 you should use specific messages to order tests, like OMG, OML, OMD, OMS, OMN, OMI, and OMP), ORL and ORU messages. In a very simplified case, the exchange of data may look like this.

Let's look at these messages in more detail.

Cures Act USCDI/ C-CDAv21 certification. I am looking for SDA3 examples for Newman-Bates-Kid/registry settings/advices on how to learn / whatever is helpful. InterSystems  xsl files are clean but I am not working very often with xsl. I am mainly looking at Provenance and Clinical Notes, the 2 last errors we have. InterSystems documentation, so far I know, is very poor: only classes and some pages. Support has a small knowledge about SDA3 -> C-CDAv21 even if they try very hard to help.

When creating a PRA (Privileged Routine Application; which by the way is not relevant just for Routines but also for Classes/Methods), it is important to make sure you include a new $ROLES, before calling AddRoles(). For example:

new$ROLESset status=$System.Security.AddRoles("MyPrivilegedRoutineApplication")

This way you ensure that indeed the added (elevated) roles "evaporate" for the User running this code, once the User is out of the scope of that routine/method.

[Thank you @Andreas Dieckow for validating this]

Question Ben Webb · Oct 26, 2021

Hi all, I'm fairly new to this engine so I was wondering what the best approach for creating a dynamic mapper to downgrade from one HL7 version to another (e.g 2.4 to 2.3) with the DTL Editor,  It seems like something that would be quite commonly needed but I haven't found a method that works yet,I would like to Map any 2.4 ADT message to the same event type in a lower version (e.g DocType 2.4:ADT_A01 to 2.3:ADT_A01), without having to create a specific map for each trigger event and without having to specify the DocType ahead of time. At the moment I'd need 40 or so unique maps if I was to

Purpose

This set of tools (RanRead, RanWrite, and the combined RanIO) is used to generate random read and write events within a database (or pair of databases) to test the IO speed of IRIS running on a specified hardware setup. While Read operations can be measured in the usual Input/Output operations per second (IOPS) since they're direct disk reads, write events are sent to the database and thus their physical writes are managed by IRIS's write daemon.

Results gathered from the IO tests will vary from configuration to configuration based on the IO sub-system. Before running these tests, ensure corresponding operating system and storage level monitoring are configured to capture IO performance metrics for later analysis. The suggested method is by running the System Performance tool that comes bundled within IRIS. Please note that this is an update to a previous release, which can be found here.

Question Martin Staudigel · Feb 2, 2022

Hello community,

on my first steps with processing FHIR requests, I tried to create a capability statement resource an returning its content JSON or XML, depending on what is requested by the client.

I create a CapabilityStatement object by parsing a JSON file with:

#dim tCapStat as HS.FHIR.DTL.vR4.Model.Resource.CapabilityStatement = ##class(HS.FHIR.DTL.vR4.Model.Resource.CapabilityStatement).FromJSONFile("/opt/home/data/fhir/UkerQsCapabilityStatement.json","vR4")

then, depending on the content of pRequest.Request.ResponseFormatCode I create a HS.SDA3.QuickStream Object with

Since the contact with IRIS, it has been used most in hospitals as an ESB integration engine, as a link in the hospital's integration platform+data center. However, you can also develop some restful pis to be used as the backend of front end and back end separation projects

Question Warren Baldock · Nov 24, 2022

Morning everyone, 

I would appreciate some advice please- hopefully there is plenty of experts out there.

We are setting up an sFTP share between hospital trusts here in the UK and I have set the outbound operation up using a custom extension of EnsLib.HL7.Operation.FTPOperation.

We are configuring a VPN tunnel to run between the sites also so there is a bit of firewall / network routing to take place to enable the connection but to add in a complication we are on a mirrored cluster and usually present on a Virtual IP address.

Question Stella Ticker · Oct 27, 2022

A mistake happened and records were assigned the wrong assigning authority name: PID3.4.

Everything else  was correct. This resulted in duplicate records. Ex

Record 1: MRN1 has AA1 and clinical data

Record 2:  MRN1 has AA2 and the same clinical data as Record 1 + more clinical data that is not in Record 1

I would like to remove Record 2 ensuring that there are no orphan records left.

Should I use a merge transaction? If so, which one? The ones that I have seen expect a different MRN in the MRG segment. These records have the same MRN. What would be the best approach?

Thank you for reading!

Question Kesav Kumar Kolla · Oct 29, 2022

Hi

I'm thinking to deploy healthshare using kubernetes. Has any one done this before? How will the TCP listeners in healthshare work with kubernetes? Will they automatically create a service endpoint so that I can route traffic?

Please advise me on how to think about this.

Thanks

Good morning, evening, night,... wink

A small reflection/question for today... it's true that new IRIS for Health (I4H) releases are more and more powerful each time regarding FHIR capabilities. Nowadays it allows us to consume FHIR resources with extrem easiness, we can connect with end-points in external FHIR servers very easily and make I4H act as passthrough or consume their resources... or, even more, we can define, configure and run a FHIR repository in, literally, less than 5 minutes.
