Integrating with HL7 applications
Use HL7 nodes in a message flow to integrate HL7 clinical applications.
Before you start:
- Configure the broker. To use your message flow, it must be deployed to a broker. To set up a default broker configuration, see Creating the default configuration for IBM WebSphere Message Broker Connectivity Pack for Healthcare.
- Read the information about how to develop message flow applications; see Developing message flow applications in the WebSphere® Message Broker documentation.
- Check whether there are any patterns that you can use (or adapt) to meet your requirements, see Developing healthcare message flow applications by using the patterns supplied in IBM WebSphere Message Broker Connectivity Pack for Healthcare.
If there are no patterns that meet your requirements, you
can integrate data from HL7 applications
by creating your own message flow and adding HL7 nodes.
To use the data from HL7 applications in message flows, complete the following steps:
Next:
Test and debug your message flow application to check that it works correctly. See Testing and debugging message flow applications in the WebSphere Message Broker documentation.
