CCDA-fragment-validator
Application with website that provides for validation of schematron sections of CCDA documents.
Example website hosted by More Informatics at http://www.ccda.io
(Note that this site is only used for testing fictional documents, not appropriate for PHI)
How it works
Go to base url (e.g. http://localhost/ or where you've hosted)
Inside the text area, paste in XML content from a C-CDA starting with the <section> element
This validator will return both schema and schematron errors for C-CDA documents.
The schematron is based on files here:
- https://github.com/HL7/cda-ccda-2.1/blob/master/schematron/CDAR2_IG_CCDA_CLINNOTES_R1_DSTU2.1_2015AUG_Vol2_2019JUNwith_errata.sch
- https://github.com/HL7/cda-ccda-2.1/blob/master/schematron/voc.xml (Note This schematron, however, needs some slight modification to work with the parser developed (under 10 rules of 9,000+))
The schema is based on on files in this repo: https://github.com/HL7/cda-core-2.0/ (copied December 2020)
This will return schema errors, schematron errors and schematron warnings.
