Overview

A useful new The Medical Objects RESTful web service is now available. A POST is in json format and needs to include three things:

1. patient data in json (or cjson) format

2. Package data if needing an extension or separate package to the default HL7_v2_VMR

3. the gello code itself.

Information is available here.

This service is a research and development site currently. We welcome feedback from users to the info@medical-objects… address. If you wish to use it for commercial/mainstream purposes, please contact us.

Use of SNOMED-CT

Use of SNOMED CT through this web service requires a license from IHTSDO. Do not use this functionality if you are not licensed to do so.

Worked example – Body Mass Index (BMI)

This worked example gets the latest height and weight for a patient and calculates the BMI on the MO web server, and then retrieves the result as json. The example makes use of the ‘Postman – REST Client’ chrome app.

...

Here is some GELLO code to calculate BMI:

     imports HL7_v2_VMR_V1

     Context SinglePatient

     Let allWeights:Sequence(Observation) = vitals.weight

     Let allHeights:Sequence(Observation) = vitals.height

     Let mostRecentWeight:Observation = allWeights->sortedBy(dateTime)->last()

     Let mostRecentHeight:Observation = allHeights->sortedBy(dateTime)->last()

     Let wt:Real = mostRecentWeight.value.oclAsType(PQ).value

     Let ht:Real = mostRecentHeight.value.oclAsType(PQ).convert('m').value

     Let BMI: Real = wt/ht.power(2)

     If BMI < 18.5 then 'Underweight'

         else If BMI >= 18.5 and BMI < 25 then 'Normal'

            else If BMI >= 25 and BMI < 30 then 'Overweight'

               else 'Obese'

               endif

            endif

         endif

Using fifthTest.xml, here is the result:

The url string for the POST in the REST client is:  http://mowgli.medical-objects.com.au/rest/gellov2/generic

The json code for a POST is in the attached folder and it is named POST.txt.  Instance data for the data model starts on line 3. Package data starts on line 1912 and the Gello query itself is on 1921.

Here is a screen shot of Postman:
