SQL on FHIR v2.1: A Technical Tour

Description TBD

Ryzhikov Nikolai
10:00 AM

Findings from the SQL on FHIR paper and an update on Pathling developments

This session presents findings from the recently published SQL on FHIR paper in npj Digital Medicine, which documents the development and validation of a standard method for transforming FHIR data into tabular structures. We will examine the design principles behind the view definition specification, including the deliberate constraints that balance expressivity with implementation feasibility.

The session includes a demonstration of how view definitions were used to replicate a clinical study on racial disparities in oxygen therapy across multiple technology platforms, illustrating the portability of the approach. We will also provide an update on recent developments in Pathling, including enhancements to its view runner implementation and integration with the broader SQL on FHIR ecosystem.

Attendees will gain practical understanding of how SQL on FHIR view definitions can be applied to real-world analytical use cases while maintaining consistency across different execution environments.
