Overview

The MML generally consists of 2 blocks. The group of frequently-reused elements is defined as the MML common format. The number assigned to the element name corresponds to the number of each element explanation.

 

MML header block (MML basic structure 1.1. MmlHeader)

The header block consists of the “MML creator information (1.1.1. mmlCi:CreatorInfo),” “Patient ID (1.1.2. masterId),” “toc (1.1.3. toc)”, etc. “toc” (abbreviation for table of contents) has a URI information list contained in the body block. The implementing system is able to decline all data or accept part of it when the information block of unknown URI appears.

When you check “toc” in the header, you can see what data exist without viewing the body.

 

MML body block (MML basic structure 1.2. MmlBody)

The body block consists of multiple item blocks (1.2.1. MmlModuleItem). Each item block consists of the individual document header (1.2.1.1. docInfo) and its content (1.2.1.2. content). docInfo consists of the confirm date (1.2.1.1.4. confirmDate), the creator information (1.2.1.1.5. mmlCi:CreatorInfo), document type, the title (1.2.1.1.2. title), the document ID (1.2.1.1.3.1. uid), the parent ID (1.2.1.1.3.2. parentId), the group ID (1.2.1.1.3.3. groupId), the access right (1.2.1.1.1. securityLevel), and the external reference list (1.2.1.1.6. extRefs). “extRefs” contains the list of mmlCm:extRef reference in the “content”. The details can be checked as an external reference list. The content of each item block is one of 12 data structures described below.
