Many people know of HL7 as an organization that creates healthcare messaging standards. But HL7 is also developing standards for the representation of clinical documents (such as discharge summaries and consultation notes). These document standards comprise the HL7 Clinical Document Architecture (CDA). Last year we presented a high-level conceptual overview of the CDA. Since that time, CDA has entered HL7's formal ballot process (which when successful will make the CDA an ANSI-approved HL7 standard). This article delves into the technical details of the current CDA proposal. Note that due to space limitations, only a subset of CDA details can be described. Also, because the ballot process elicits considerable feedback, it is likely that the material presented here will undergo evolution prior to becoming a final standard. The most up-to-date information is available on HL7's web site (www.hl7.org).
许多人知道HL7是一个创建医疗保健消息标准的组织。但HL7也在制定临床文档（如出院小结和会诊记录）表示的标准。这些文档标准构成了HL7临床文档架构（CDA）。去年我们对CDA进行了高层次的概念性概述。从那时起，CDA已进入HL7的正式投票程序（成功后将使CDA成为ANSI批准的HL7标准）。本文深入探讨了当前CDA提案的技术细节。请注意，由于篇幅限制，只能描述CDA细节的一个子集。此外，由于投票过程会引发大量反馈，此处呈现的内容在成为最终标准之前可能会有所演变。最新信息可在HL7的网站（www.hl7.org）上获取。
