A medical logic module (MLM) is an independent unit in a healthcare knowledge base that represents the knowledge published on a requirement for treating a patient according to a single medical decision.
Possible usage is with an event monitor program in an intensive care ward or with hospital information system on occurrence of defined conditions.
[1] The Arden syntax has been defined as a grammar which could make MLMs swappable between various platforms.
[2] There is no reference stated for general implementation as a transfer method between different information systems.
