Conformance in HL7 v2.5
Introduction - What are the basic concepts of conformance in HL7 v2.5?
- What is Conformance and Validation, what is a Message Profile, a Conformance Statement, etc.
What are the current normative documents?
- Conformance using Message Profiles, section 2.12 in the approved v2.5 standard (July 2003) The message profile schema and DTD in section 2.19 are also normative.
- V2.xml document
What tutorials or other documents are useful for newcomers
- HL7 Conformance Tutorial dated October 2001 by Ioana Singureanu and Mary Ann Juurlink, seeHL7 Canada archive
- Version 2 Messaging Conformance (tutorial) dated May 2006 by Abdul-Malik Shakir (?contact him for availability)
What are some apabilities of message profiles?
- Can message profiles require or constrain the use of v2 extensibility features (z-segments, etc.)
- ??
- Can message profiles constrain use of components and subcomponents in complex data types?
- ??
- How do message profiles interact with Value Sets?
- ??
What tools are available to perform validation?
- See HL7API on Sourceforge Are the references on this page up to date? Who maintains it?
Where can I find examples of HL7 confomance statements?
- (Enter "HL7 conformance statement"in any search engine.)
Where can I find examples of message profiles
- ADT examples from Jenni in HL7 registry
- examples from HL7 Germany (Frank)
- examples from Abdul-Malik's work in California
- other examples ... Australia? Canada?
How do I create a message profile (especially the static definition)?
- (can use MWB to create; XSLT or similar to produce human-readable "interface spec")
How do I register a message profile with HL7?
- see users guide on hl7 web site
Is there a profile for the HL7 v2.5 standard?
- ???
