infrastructureRoot
User
Guidance
Infrastructure Root Class locates at the top layer of HL7 Class structure and
defines necessary properties which are applied to all elements in messages for
transmission.
This schema, derived from Infrastructure Root Class, defines attributes
commonly used in complex type where attributes or child elements are defined.
infrastructureRoot schema is referenced from complex type.
datatypes-base
User
Guidance
The HL7 datatypes, which are used within the definition of all model elements,
are defined within the two schemas, datatypes-base, and datatypes. datatypes-
baseschema defines data types for both complex type (e.g. ED, CD) and simple
type (e.g. ST, CS).
HL7 data types are categorised into ‘Basic data type’ and ‘Generic data type’.
This schema defines Basic data type and part of Generic data type. Basic data
type is a combination of Generic data types and such components are included in
this schema.
datatypes
User
Guidance
The HL7 datatypes, which are used within the definition of all model elements,
are defined within the two schemas, datatypes-base and
datatypes.datatypesdefines ‘Generic data type’ which is used by setting a
parameter in definition (e.g. A Generic data type IVL_T becomes IVL_TS
or IVL_PQ with parameters at T).

User
Guidance
The schema includes the vocabulary items that are defined by HL7 for use by all
Implementers (at the ‘universal’ level).It includes the vocabulary domains that
have been defined through RIM harmonisation, and the value sets that are
defined by HL7.For the most part, these apply to HL7 structural attributes, and
to data types.
Note: Only NarrativeBlock schema in core schema set is not used for ICH ICSR messages and
ICSR Acknowledgement message.
