ServiceRequest
ServiceRequest creates an order with all neccessary informations.
Create
Endpoint
POST <serveraddress>/fhir/ServiceRequest
This returns the created ServiceRequest and an url in the location header.
All CodeableConcepts are bound to an individual CodeSystem. ValueSet can be used to query these codes.
Patient, Condition, Medication and Specimens shall be submitted as contained resources.
Notification
To get information about the status of the process, an notification url can be submitted in an extension.
At each workflow step, the current DiagnosticReport is sent to this URL.

ServiceRequest
| ServiceRequestCreate (ServiceRequest) | C | ServiceRequest | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element idServiceRequestShort description A request for a service to be performed Alternate namesdiagnostic request, referral, referral request, transfer of care request DefinitionA record of a request for service such as diagnostic investigations, treatments, or operations to be performed.
| |||
| id | Σ | 0..1 | string | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element idServiceRequest.idShort description Logical id of this artifact DefinitionThe logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes. The only time that a resource does not have an id is when it is being submitted to the server using a create operation. | ||
| meta | Σ | 0..1 | Meta | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element idServiceRequest.metaShort description Metadata about the resource DefinitionThe metadata about the resource. This is content that is maintained by the infrastructure. Changes to the content might not always be associated with version changes to the resource. The cardinality or value of this element may be affected by these constraints: ele-1 Constraints
| ||
| implicitRules | Σ ?! | 0..1 | uri | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element idServiceRequest.implicitRulesShort description A set of rules under which this content was created DefinitionA reference to a set of rules that were followed when the resource was constructed, and which must be understood when processing the content. Often, this is a reference to an implementation guide that defines the special rules along with other profiles etc. Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element. Often, when used, the URL is a reference to an implementation guide that defines these special rules as part of it's narrative along with other profiles, value sets, etc. The cardinality or value of this element may be affected by these constraints: ele-1 Constraints
| ||
| language | 0..1 | codeBinding | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element idServiceRequest.languageShort description Language of the resource content DefinitionThe base language in which the resource is written. Language is provided to support indexing and accessibility (typically, services such as text to speech use the language tag). The html language tag in the narrative applies to the narrative. The language tag on the resource may be used to specify the language of other presentations generated from the data in the resource. Not all the content has to be in the base language. The Resource.language should not be assumed to apply to the narrative automatically. If a language is specified, it should it also be specified on the div element in the html (see rules in HTML5 for information about the relationship between xml:lang and the html lang attribute). A human language.

| text | 0..1 | Narrative | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element idServiceRequest.textShort description Text summary of the resource, for human interpretation Alternate namesnarrative, html, xhtml, display DefinitionA human-readable narrative that contains a summary of the resource and can be used to represent the content of the resource to a human. The narrative need not encode all the structured data, but is required to contain sufficient detail to make it "clinically safe" for a human to just read the narrative. Resource definitions may define what content should be represented in the narrative to ensure clinical safety. Contained resources do not have narrative. Resources that are not contained SHOULD have a narrative. In some cases, a resource may only have text with little or no additional discrete data (as long as all minOccurs=1 elements are satisfied). This may be necessary for data from legacy systems where information is captured as a "text blob" or where text is additionally entered raw or narrated and encoded information is added later.

| modifierExtension | ?! C | 0..* | Extension | There are no (further) constraints on this element Element idServiceRequest.modifierExtensionShort description Extensions that cannot be ignored Alternate namesextensions, user content DefinitionMay be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the resource and that modifies the understanding of the element that contains it and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer is allowed to define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions. Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself). Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions. There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions.

Note: This is a business identifier, not a resource identifier (see discussion). It is best practice for the identifier to only appear on a single resource instance, however business practices may occasionally dictate that multiple resource instances with the same identifier can exist - possibly even with different resource types.

Needed for identification of the individual, in combination with (at least) name and birth date. The gender might not match the biological sex as determined by genetics or the individual's preferred identification. Note that for both humans and particularly animals, there are other legitimate possibilities than male and female, though the vast majority of systems and contexts only support male and female. Systems providing decision support or enforcing business rules should ideally do this on the basis of Observations dealing with the specific sex or gender aspect of interest (anatomical, chromosomal, social, etc.) However, because these observations are infrequently recorded, defaulting to the administrative gender is common practice. Where such defaulting occurs, rule enforcement should allow for the variation between administrative and biological, chromosomal and other gender aspects. For example, an alert about a hysterectomy on a male should be handled as a warning or overridable error, not a "hard" error.
