Resource Profile: ObservationHeartRateLite

Official URL: https://fhir.cambio.se/StructureDefinition/ObservationHeartRateLite/v1 Version: 1.2.0
Active as of 2025-10-24 Computable Name: ObservationHeartRateLite

Introduction

The ObservationHeartRateLite profile represents the vital sign Heart rate and is a profile created from the resource Observation. The vital sign heart rate holds a value of the patient pulse. The profile is derived from the standard FHIR profile Vital Signs which makes the profile compliant with the FHIR standardized way of communicating vital sign data.

Intended Use

The ObservationHeartRateLite is used for communicating the value of the patient's heart rate in beats per minutes by sending a value in the element observation.value. If the heart rate of the patient is irregular it can also be communicated using the extension element.

The API can be used to create and read patient heart rate information from/to COSMIC.

Create Heart Rate

Patient Generated

  • The patient generated data is ordered by a care giver and there should be a responsible unit sent together with the data.

Healthcare Professional

  • To create data using this API, the user should be a healthcare professional with a specified HSA ID. The healthcare professional should have their assignment, and be connected, to the specified care unit. The care unit should also be specified with a HSA ID.
  • The intended use is in first hand that the API is used within the same caregiver. The user and the specified care unit should exist in COSMIC as well as in the external system.

Read Heart Rate

  • The intended use for reading data with this API is in first hand that the API is applied for direct access and should not be used to transfer data between caregivers. If it should be used for "data copying" between caregivers, patient consent must be handled outside the API.

Specific Rules and Limitations

Type Description
Rule This API should not be used to transfer data between caregivers.
Rule The consumer of the API is responsible for making sure data retrieved is filtered in compliance with laws and regulations prior to presenting it to any end-users.
Rule For reading vital sign observations, the external system needs to be able to evaluate PDL. This means whether the information can be displayed for a healthcare professional with a specific assignment. PDL data needed (HSA care unit and HSA care provider) is retrieved by including the organization referenced from Observation.performer.organization (OrganizationSEVendorLite).
Rule If the performer is Patient, the subject should be the same as given performer.
Rule POST: The data should not be patient initiated. If patient generated, it should be ordered by a care giver and belong to a specific unit.
Rule POST: It is not supported to create vital sign entries with statuses preliminary, entered-in-error or cancelled. Only status final is supported in POST operation.
Rule POST: dateTime cannot be 1st of the month with the time 00:00:00.000+01:00 (See error messages described below)
Rule POST: dateTime cannot be only date component, also time component will be needed (See error messages described below)
Rule POST: COSMIC does not support displaying continuous values and hence the external product should not send values to COSMIC more often than every 15 minutes per patient. All values received in COSMIC will be saved and displayed but because it cannot be displayed in a proper way it should not be sent more often as standard

Supported Operations

HTTP Method Description
GET Used to get or search for Heart rate entries
POST Used to create a heart rate entry. If successful, the operation will return id in response

Search Parameters

Parameter Format Mandatory Comment
date date (ddmmyy) Yes Obtained date/time. The date is always a range, i.e. two dates are used as search parameters.
status token No The status of the observation. See supported statuses in #Statuses
patient reference Yes The subject that the observation is about (if patient). The reference can be a literal reference ex: subject=1 or a Business identifier as well.ex: subject.identifier=urn:oid:1.2.752.129.2.1.3.1|20200109-6078
_profile string No search on the profile url.

Supported Queries

  1. GET [baseURL]/Observation/_search?patient= (Search)

Error Codes

In the table below, a few error messages specific for Observation are listed.

Code Description Comment
400 "Subject and Performer Patient references does not match."  
400 "The date time: < date > is invalid" the dateTime must contain a time component
400 "Server supports only final status when posting Observations"  

Cambio Lite profile for communicating the vital parameter, Heart rate, between an external system and COSMIC. The heart rate profile includes the value of the beats per minutes and a slice for regularity of the heart rate, contextuel data and meta data.
