[David Aylward]

Dr Greg Mears and Clay Mann are the primary authors/experts on NEMSIS and great guys.  They can answer your question. Dr Kevin Coonan can answer for DEEDS and HL7 -- also a great guy

Eileen: please post their emails on Tuesday. 

Happy New Year everyone. May peace come in the new year

Tom & Rex--

Thank you very much for the suggestions.

One question -- the EMS dataset at NEMSIS seems to have much of what 
I'm looking for, with one major exception.  I didn't see a way of 
indicating the triage acuity or injury severity of the patient.  Did 
I just miss that in the spec?

Thanks again...
