Profile on Composition representing a complete WHO Medical Certificate of Cause of Death (MCCoD) document.

This is the top-level resource of the MCCoD document. It ties together all mandatory (Frame A) and optional (Frame B) profiles defined in this IG, and enforces cross-resource constraints through invariants.

Document type: LOINC 64297-5 (Death certificate) is used as the Composition.type.

Participants:

  • subject: the deceased Patient (base FHIR, unconstrained)
  • author: certifying Practitioner or PractitionerRole
  • custodian: certifying Organization All three reference base FHIR resources without further constraint, allowing member countries to extend per national requirements.

Sections:

  • Frame A (1..1 MANDATORY): Cause of death chain, underlying cause, and contributing conditions
  • Frame B General (0..1 OPTIONAL): Surgery, autopsy, manner of death, external cause
  • Frame B Fetal/Infant (0..1 OPTIONAL): Fetal/infant death details; SHOULD be populated for infant deaths and stillbirths
  • Frame B Pregnancy (0..1 OPTIONAL): Pregnancy status; SHOULD be populated for female deceased aged 15-49

Mandatory constraints (error-level):

  • Frame A SHALL contain exactly one Condition with linePosition=a
  • If line c present, line b SHALL be present
  • If line d present, line c SHALL be present
  • Frame A SHALL contain exactly one UnderlyingCauseOfDeath
  • If a Frame B fetal/infant or pregnancy section is present but contains no entries, emptyReason SHALL be present

Conditional guidance (warning-level):

  • If manner of death is an external cause, MCCoDInjuryIncident SHOULD be present in frameBGeneral
  • If deceased was infant/newborn (age < 28 days), frameBFetalInfant SHOULD be populated
  • If deceased was female aged 15-49, frameBPregnancy SHOULD be populated
