1 Introduction
This page describes patient's use case for the retrieval of vaccination results, in a personal health environment (PHR) context. Functional specifications are described at the functional design wiki page. This use case consists of enabling a patient to view his own administered vaccinations in a PHR. The technical specification is described here. HL7 FHIR R4 is used for this purpose. Vaccinations are represented by the Immunization resource in FHIR. A transaction will retrieve all administered vaccinations from the XIS.
Note: This implementation guide builds on the general guidelines described in the use case overarching principles.
2 Actors involved
| Actors | Systems | FHIR CapabilityStatements | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Name | Description | Name | Description | Name | Description |
| Patient | The user of a personal healthcare environment. | PHR | Personal health record | CapabilityStatement: Retrieve Serve | FHIR client/server requirements |
| (Healthcare) provider | The user of a XIS | XIS | (Healthcare) information system | ||
3 Use case 1: Retrieve vaccinations
This FHIR implementation guide assumes that the PHR system is able to make a connection to the right XIS that contains the patient's information. It does not provide information on finding the right XIS nor does it provide information about security. Moreover, each transaction is performed in the context of a specific authenticated patient, for whose context (token) has been established using the authentication mechanisms described in the 'Afsprakenstelsel'. Each XIS Gateway is required to perform filtering based on the patient associated with the context for the request, so only the records associated with the authenticated patient are returned. For this reason, search parameters should not be included for patient identification.
3.1 Introduction
The retrieve vaccinations transaction is used by the PHR to retrieve vaccinations from a XIS.
3.2 Actors
| Transaction group | Transaction | Actor | Role |
|---|---|---|---|
| Retrieve vaccinations(PULL) | Retrieve vaccinations request | Patient (using a PHR) | Request vaccinations from the XIS |
| Retrieve vaccinations response | (Healthcare) provider (using a XIS) | Serves vaccinations to the PHR |
3.3 Invocations
3.3.1 PHR: request message
The request message represents an HTTP GET parameterized query from the PHR to the XIS.
3.3.1.1 Trigger events
When the patient (PHR) wants to obtain vaccinations, it issues a retrieve vaccinations request message.
3.3.1.2 Message semantics
Search
The PHR executes an HTTP GET conform to the FHIR RESTful and search specification against the XIS's Observation endpoint. This search query URL is configurable by the PHR and has the following format.
GET [base]/Immunization{?[includes]}
Search Parameters
The PHR may supply, and the XIS shall be capable of processing, all inlcudes listed below. These includes are a selection of the defined includes. The includes can also be combined to retrieve multiple resources.
| Immunization | ||
|---|---|---|
| Name | Description | Example |
patient
|
This will specify the resource for the patient that the immunization is performed on. |
Retrieve the Immunization and Patient resource: GET [base]/Immunization?_include:patient |
location
|
This will specify the resource(*) for the location where the Immunization took place. |
Retrieve the Immunization and Location resource: GET [base]/Immunization?_include:location |
performer
|
This will specify the resource for the healthcareprovider who performed the immunization on the patient. |
Retrieve the Immunization and Practitioner or Organization resource: GET [base]/Immunization?_include:performer |
At this point in time, there are no use cases for filter parameters on the query. The stated query will return a Bundle with all known administered immunizations. Each immunization is conveyed in an Immunization resource. The Immunization resource will contain references to actors such as the patient (Patient resource), the health professional (PractitionerRole and Practitioner resources) and the organization (Organization resource). The client SHALL be able to resolve there referenced resources, as described in the MedMij FHIR R4 Implementation Guide.

(*) The vaccination location may or may not be a fully specified address and may or may not be a location of a healthcare provider. It is conceivable that it is as vague as "Germany" when, for example, a parent of a child informs the registry of a having received a vaccination "in Germany" without any further info. In these cases it might be unreasonable to instantiate an independent Location resource signalling it also exists outside of the context of the Immunization. FHIR defines the use of contained references for information that only makes sense in the context of some parent resource. It is the prerogative of the source system whether or not Example fragment
|
3.3.1.2.1 Expected actions
The XIS SHALL process the query to retrieve patient's Immunization resources and the referenced resources.
3.3.2 XIS: response message
The XIS returns an HTTP Status code appropriate to the processing as well as a FHIR Bundle including the matching information.
3.3.2.1 Trigger events
The XIS completed processing of the retrieve vaccinations request message.
3.3.2.2 Message semantics
The returned data to the PHR should conform to the profiles listed in the table below. The resources in the response message SHALL conform to the requirements as described in the MedMij FHIR R4 Implementation Guide.

Vaccination-Immunization uses the FHIR Packaging mechanism. This conveniently bundles all profiles, terminology, example material and other conformance resources you need into a single archive, which can be downloaded or installed using the appropriate FHIR tooling. This version of the information standard uses the following packages:
Note: packages use Semantic Versioning. Other versions can be used at will as long as they have the same major.minor number or a minor number higher than the stated version. |
