All Known Implementing Classes:

PdSupplier

public interface IPdSupplier

This interface defines a patient demographics supplier (PDS) actor. PDS is a server side actor specified by IHE patient demographics query (PDQ) profile. See Section 3.21 of Vol. 2 (ITI TF-2): Transactions, available on the IHE site.

This class needs to register a PDS adapter which implements IPdSupplierAdapter by invoking registerPdSupplierAdapter(IPdSupplierAdapter). The adapter provides a bridge between this PDSupplier actor and the EMPI.
