i2b2 - SMART Integration

As part of the Strategic Health IT Advanced Research Projects (SHARP) program and the Substitutable Medical Apps Reusable Technologies (SMART) initiative, a SMART-enabled i2b2 cell is being developed to expose a common API for SMART-applications to interact with health data within the i2b2 analytics platform.

Current Development

Upated: March 7th, 2011

The SMART i2b2 cell currently exposes a "Get Medications" function that returns the entire graph of stored medications in RDF/XML format for a single patient record via a REST call.

Get Medications

GET http://i2b2_server/records/{record id}/medications/

will return a list of medications in RDF/XML for a specific patient based on the record_id passed

Get Demographics

GET http://i2b2_server/records/{record id}/demographics/

will return the demographic information in RDF/XML for a specific patient based on the record_id passed

Get Problems

GET http://i2b2_server/records/{record id}/problems/

will return a list of problems in RDF/XML for a specific patient based on the record_id passed

New: "Get Allergies" has been added to the SMArt i2b2 cell per current SMArt API specifications

Get Allergies

GET http://i2b2_server/records/{record id}/allergies/

will return a list of allergies in RDF/XML for a specific patient based on the record_id passed

New i2b2 Web Client Plugin: SMART Dashboard

The SMART Dashboard is a new i2b2 web client plugin that allows for the embedding of SMART applications directly in the web query tool. As shown in the screenshot below, an external SMART app has been embedded directly in the i2b2 web query tool and has access to i2b2 patient data via the SMART connect model described at www.smartplatforms.org
