Good day, Agent IRIS,

We're sorry for interrupting your vacation in the Bahamas, but we just received word from our London agent that a "time bomb" is set to detonate in a highly populated area in Los Angeles. Our sources say that the "time bomb" is set to trigger at 3:14 PM this afternoon.

Hello community,

is anybody located in the DACH area healthcare sector working with Dedalus Orbis as patient master and uses a custom HL7 schema for parsing Orbis message structures into Health Connect?

We're facing a migration and I ask myself if I have to create a schema by myself, based on the pdf documentation given by the company. This is a tedious task, so hopefully there is somebody out there willing to share his or her experience.

Kind regards,

Martin

High Availability IAM

One of the recommendations when deploying InterSystems Technologies for production is to set up High Availability. The recommended API Manager for these InterSystems Technologies is the InterSystems API Manager (IAM). IAM (essentially Kong Gateway) has multiple deployment topologies.

We currently have Business Operation that we built to use the EnsLib.SQL.OutboundAdapter so we can make Microsoft SQL Server Stored Procedure calls. The BO is attached to a Java Gateway Service.

Some of our MS SQL Databases have moved from being OnPrem to Azure Cloud. We have started seeing where we are receiving errors on the BO saying that we cannot connect to the Azure Database, but we never receive a Disconnect from the Azure Database.

I am trying to help another group within our organization access a SQL Table that I have created to populate Epic Department Data within our environment and came across the ability to use SQL Seach REST Interface using iKnow.

However, I am having issues trying to get it to work via POSTMAN before I hand off the solution...

the POST URL... https://<servername>/api/iKnow/latest/TESTCLIN/table/osuwmc_Epic_Clarity.DepartmentMaster/search

where osuwmc_Epic_Clarity.DepartmentMaster is the table

In the body...

We have a task that runs objectscript code to load data into a linked external table. After upgrading from 2024.1 to 2025.1, the load is throwing an error, with error code -400, and no error message. The data DOES get loaded into the external table in its entirety, so with no meaningful error message, its hard to determine what the issue is. The result is the same with and without the USING clause, so don't let that confuse you. We have logs of this statement succeeding before upgrade, and were able to get this statement to work in our production environment, which is still on version 2

I created a Custom Search Table that extends EnsLib.HL7.Search Table. I saved, compiled, and rebuilt the index however when I go into Message Search to try to use the Search Table, within the conditions the proper fields are not showing up that was defined. It is showing the fields from EnsLib.HL7.SearchTable. I did a build index on both EnsLib.HL7.SearchTable and OSU.HL7.SearchTable.

#InterSystems Demo Games entry

⏯️ Being READY to Tackle Healthcare Enterprise Challenges in a Few Clicks

Managed Cloud Solutions to Help Streamline Your Health Services.

This demo showcases composing several InterSystems Managed Cloud Services to solve various use-cases.

The video is actually built of 6 short chapters (each ~2.5 minutes long) showing each part of the story, demoing a different service.

You can watch each "chapter" individually if you're interested in a specific service, but there is value in viewing the whole composition and observing the full flow.

  • 0:00 Health Connect Cloud - Medical Device MQTT - HL7v2 for Hospital Operation Systems
  • 2:29 FHIR Server & FHIR Transformation Service - HL7v2 to FHIR & Repository for Regulation & Exchange
  • 5:21 FHIR SQL Builder - Providing standard relational access to FHIR data
  • 7:22 "FHIR IntelliChat" (see note below) - Natural human language chat with FHIR Server
  • 9:37 OMOP Solution - FHIR to OMOP transformation & OMOP database with OHDSI tools compliance
  • 12:54 InterSystems Data Fabric Studio for Health - Creating a multi data/app sources fabric

[Note the "FHIR IntelliChat" part is not an actual formal InterSystems service, it is just a demonstration of a possibility (based on this solution by @José Pereira) ]

Using a WSDL and the SOAP wizard I created a WebServiceClient, and Operation to send an encoded message to a Vendor. But the vendor is now sending back an HL7 in the SOAP response.

I tried updating the Operation to Extend EnsLib.HL7.Operation.ReplyStandard, but still use the EnsLib.SOAP.OutboundAdapter. When I did this it broke my Operation and would not compile with the following error...

This article outlines the process of utilizing the renowned Jaeger solution for tracing InterSystems IRIS applications. Jaeger is an open-source product for tracking and identifying issues, especially in distributed and microservices environments. This tracing backend that emerged at Uber in 2015 was inspired by Google's Dapper and Twitter's OpenZipkin. It later joined the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) as an incubating project in 2017, achieving graduated status in 2019. This guide will demonstrate how to operate the containerized Jaeger solution integrated with IRIS.

Been testing out the Production Validator toolkit, just to see what we can/not do with it. Seems really interesting and there seem to be some use cases for it that can really streamline some upgrades (or at least parts of upgrades) but I was running into so many hurdles with the documentation. I am curious if anyone else has used it.

Hi all,

I’m working on a data transformation in IRIS where I need to calculate the difference in hours between two timestamps stored as %TimeStamp.

Example:

Set startTime = "2024-07-12 08:30:00"
Set endTime = "2024-07-12 15:15:00"

I’d like to calculate the number of hours (with decimals, like 6.75) between them. What's the recommended way to do this in ObjectScript? I’ve seen examples using $ZDATETIME, but I’m not sure if that’s the cleanest approach.

I am making a FHIR request against Epic, in when I get the Response back using "fromDao" I am extracting the stream into HS.FHIRModel.R4.Patient. However, the patient's name comes back as name within a list that references HS.FHIRModel.R4.SeqOfHumanName.

  • How do I extract the name from HS.FHIRModel.R4.SeqOfHumanName?
  • Do I have to then do another "fromDao" to pull the list into string format?
  • How do I navigate around the lists that are in a FHIRModel response, to extract the string values?

I have been struggling sometime with trying to take a FHIR Bundle Response, extract the "entry.resourceType", extract the MRN and Name from the Patient FHIR Response...

Going through learning.intersystems.com, it suggested that I try using fhirPathAPI to parse and search my response for certain values, however I am not sure my syntax is correct. Using the AI code, it suggested to set my tree = "Bundle.entry.resource.resourceType"

I am receiving a FHIR response bundle back with a resource of patient. Using fromDao, I attempted to take the stream and put it into FHIRModel.R4.Patient but it is not mapping correctly. When I attempt to take FHIRModel.R4.Patient and write it out using toString(), all I am seeing is the resource

{"resourceType":"Patient"}

so the response is not mapping correctly to FHIRModel.R4.Patient. How have others handled this? Do I need to translate it to an SDA since it does fit the model format?
