Device read

get/Device/{id}
Page View

This resource contains details about a medical or non-medical device. It provides administrative context for a device used during a patient visit or administered for home use. This resource is usually referenced by other resources.

You can review or retrieve device details.

read

Review a specific Device resource with details about a patient's device or a device used during an encounter.

To use a read interaction, you must know the related resource ID, which you may not have in your real workflows. A read is likely only a follow-up option after receiving the specific resource in a recent FHIR® passthrough or data on demand exchange.

Typically, you should use the more flexible _search with query parameters, unless you're guaranteed to request data directly from a FHIR® server using the resource ID. Learn more about using FHIR® identifiers.
