Health informatics - Clinical knowledge resources - Metadata

This Technical Specification defines a number of metadata elements that describe documents containing medical knowledge, primarily digital documents provided as web resources, accessible from databases or via file transfer, but can be applicable also to paper documents, e.g. articles in the medical literature.
The metadata should:
   support unambiguous and international understanding of important aspects to describe a document e.g. purpose, issuer, intended audience, legal status and scientific background;
   be applicable to different kinds of digital documents
e.g. recommendation from consensus of a professional group, regulation by a governmental authority, clinical trial protocol from a pharmaceutical company, scientific manuscript from a research group, advice to patients with a specific disease, review article;
   be possible to present to human readers
including health professionals as well as citizens/patients
   be potentially usable for automatic processing
e.g. to support search engines to restrict matches to documents of a certain type or quality level.
The metadata here described is not intended to:
   describe documents about a single patient, such as medical records;
   describe details of the medical content of the document (but some idea of the content can be described via keywords or codes);
   prescribe criteria for the quality of the document content.

This Technical Specification (CEN/TS) was approved by CEN on 6 November 2008 for provisional application.
The period of validity of this CEN/TS is limited initially to three years. After two years the members of CEN will be requested to submit their
comments, particularly on the question whether the CEN/TS can be converted into a European Standard.
CEN members are required to announce the existence of this CEN/TS in the same way as for an EN and to make the CEN/TS available
promptly at national level in an appropriate form. It is permissible to keep conflicting national standards in force (in parallel to the CEN/TS)
until the final decision about the possible conversion of the CEN/TS into an EN is reached.
