摘要
MML (Medical Markup L anguage) ,作为一套不同医疗信息系统之间的交换规格于 1995年在日本被开发。 1999年正式公布版本 2 .2 1,使用 XML作为标记语言。之后随着大规模的实证实验 ,版本 2 .2 1被进一步修改 ,2 0 0 1年升级为包含 12个模块的版本 2 .3。而最新版本 3.0是在 HL 7Clinical Docum ent Architecture (CDA)基础上开发而成 ,它将版本 2 .3的结构分割并重新定义 ,以便于用 MML记述的信息能在 HL 7CDAL evel One中表达。开发的结果表明 ,采用 MML版本 3.0形式记述的医疗文档可以通过 HL 7m essages来进行信息交换。 MML完整的规格及有关数据由日本非营利组织 Med XML委员会公开和管理 ,具体可参照 http:/ / www.m edxm l.net/。目前 ,我们正在进行 MML 3.0的中国本地化作业 ,主要包括 MML中所参照的表格的追加和修改以及医疗保险模块等的制作。
Medical Markup Language(MML),as a set of standards,has been developed over the last 8 years to allow the exchange of medical data between different medical information providers.MML version 2.21 used XML as a meta-language and was announced in 1999.In 2001,MML was updated to version 2.3 which contained twelve modules.The latest version-version 3.0-is based on the HL7 Clinical Document Architecture(CDA).During the development of this new version,the structure of MML version 2.3 was analyzed,sub-divided into several categories,and redefined so the information defined in MML could be described in HL7 CDA Level One.As a result of this development,it has become possible to exchange MML version 3.0 medical documents via HL7 messages.Currently,a localized Chinese version of MML is being created for use among medical facilities in China,some tables will be added,and the health insurance information module will be remade.
