mimic2fhir converts data from mimic-iii database (PostgreSQL) to HL7 FHIR resources. To get access to MIMIC-III DB, you have to complete a privacy course, see https://mimic.physionet.org/gettingstarted/access/ for more information.
Bundles are created per patient admission/encounter. If the number of resources in a bundle exceeds 15000, a new bundle will be created. This limits the bundle size to ~20MB. Resource bundles can be
- printed to console
- saved as xml file
- pushed to a fhir server
by setting the "outputMode":
app.setOutputMode(OutputMode.PRINT_FILE);
The parameter "topPatients" allows to limit the number of loaded patients; 0 means all patients. Transforming always starts with Patient 1.
app.setTopPatients(100);
A RabbitMQ server is required to run on localhost. Please note: Performance is highly dependent on the following and might be quite low:
- database partitioning and indexing for table chartevents (by HADM_ID)
- server performance (if pushed to a server)
We recommend starting with a low number of patients and with saving to xml files to check the database performance.
