MIC Terminology And Classifications
z Several Ways To Classify MICs
 By Hierarchy Levels
 From low level raw data MICs to top level decision MICs
 By MIC-Data Description Documents
 MIC-DD/F and MIC-DD/N, and MIC-DD/U
 By Use Categories
 Intrinsic
 List from MIC Template
 By MIC Data Flow
 MICs can be identified through usage in MIC Data Flows
 By Requirements
 Med Vol A & B
 ISS Program Requirements (MSMB FRRs, etc.)
 FS & WG flow-down requirements from MORD
Slide  4 MIC Catalog Inputs 2006-10-17.ppt
MIC Hierarchy Terminology
D - Decision MICs
Med Ops decisions that are made  using one or more lower level MICs while 
applying ISS Flight Rules, ISS Medical Documents, and ISS Program Decisions
I – Interpretation MICs
MS – Medical Summary MIC
Medical summary of one or more Data MICs that is written or presented in a report 
format without containing any raw or processed data.  
Note – MICs are not limited to paper documents, files, etc. e.g., may be verbal.               
I - Interpretation MICs
Medical interpretation of one or more Data MICs that is written or presented in a 
report format using medical expertise.  Reports include attributable crew subsets of 
relevant raw and/or processed data in various comparison or explanatory formats.  
PD - Processed  Data MICs
Human and/or equipment/software applications have converted samples and/or raw  
data into medical information in various formats and mediums.  
RD – Raw Data MICs
Data directly from sensor or medical equipment.  Typically acquired in to data files, 
displays, or paper products.  
PS – Physical Sample MICs
e.g., air, water and environmental samples; X-rays
 i l l  I
e.g., air, ater and environ ental sa ples
Slide  5 MIC Catalog Inputs 2006-10-17.ppt
z A Medical Information Communiqué (MIC) is any type 
of  report, file, display, certificate or any type of 
communication which transmits medical or 
environmental information among Partners including 
communications between crew and medical 
personnel. 
z A Partner Medical Information Communiqué (PMIC) is 
any type of  report, file, display, certificate or any type 
of communication which transmits medical or 
environmental information among that agency’s 
personnel.
MIC Data Description Terminology 
Slide  6 MIC Catalog Inputs 2006-10-17.ppt
MIC Data Description Terminology (continued)
MIC Data Descriptions (MIC-DDs)
 Metadata documents created by filling out the MIC template 
for each MIC and including a sample MIC, using generic 
data that is not attributable to any crewmember
 A list of  all of the MIC DDs will be in an appendix of the 
MDS MIC Catalog
 Each MIC DD will be a Microsoft Word document file that will 
be included in an appendix of the MDS MIC Catalog.  
 By definition MIC-DDs are MICs that are or will be shared 
among the partners according to the “Users” attributes 
defined in the MIC-DDs
z Partner Data Descriptions (PDDs)
 Metadata documents created by an agency based upon 
medical data reports, displays, etc. used by its medical staff. 
 Metadata documents that can be used for discussions 
between partners for deciding if PDDs can be evolved into 
MIC-DDs.  
Slide  7 MIC Catalog Inputs 2006-10-17.ppt
Intrinsic MICs Terminology   
Clarifying Data Sharing 
z Most of the initial Raw Data and Processed Data is generated 
by or passes through NASA and Russian equipment, systems, 
control centers and custodians.  The other partner’s 
crewmember data, which NASA and Russian equipment 
(onboard or ground labs) generates, needs to be shared with 
each crewmember’s agency.  For ease of reference these types 
of data sharing are labeled as “Intrinsic MICs” and indicted as 
such in the use category row of the MIC Template 
z If sharing of Intrinsic MICs with other partners is agreed upon,
then this agreement for additional data sharing will be 
documented in the MIC Template row specifications for the use 
category, users, and ISS requirements, etc. 
z All MICs, including Intrinsic MICs will be documented using the 
MIC Template to create a MIC Data Description (MIC-DD) for 
inclusion in the MIC Catalog.  However, unless an Intrinsic MIC 
is agreed upon and documented to be shared with ISS partners, 
it will not be stored and retrievable in the IMMR.  It will simply 
be Med Ops data communicated through ISS custodians  to the 
crewmember’s agency’s PMR.

MITWG Process For Developing MIC-DDs (continued)
z MIC Catalog will have appendices including, 
 Appendix for MIC Template
 Appendix for List of MIC-DDs
 Appendix for List of PDDs
z Initially, all documents considered for sharing will be 
designated as PDD-Fs and PDD-Ns
z Medical data which is under consideration for Intrinsic 
and/or multilateral medical data sharing will be included in 
the PDD list using the partner’s agency format description 
of the medical data.  Primarily these PDDs will come from 
FSA and NASA.
z MITWG will coordinate with FSs and working groups 
applying the MIC Template to develop MIC-DD/Fs and MIC-
DD/Ns, which will be added to the MIC Catalog for further 
processing.  
z After applying the MIC Template the first decision will be to 
determine if the only Use category for medial data sharing 
in Intrinsic.  
 If Intrinsic sharing is the only Use Category then MIC-DDs will 
remain as MIC-DD/Fs and MIC-DD/Ns. 
 If answer is no, then further assessment for MDS will occur. 
Slide  10 MIC Catalog Inputs 2006-10-17.ppt
MITWG Process For Developing MIC-DDs (continued)
z Work will continue for agreement on MDS using a Universal 
format, definition, and content by reaching agreement on a 
MIC-DD/U.  
 MITWG will require active support from the FSs and from other working 
groups to accomplish this effort.  MMOP members will serve more as 
facilitators with others performing the assessments.  
 This effort will include results from prototyping activities as well as 
analytical assessments.  
 This effort is viewed as a parallel effort by FSs and working groups 
concentrating on respective MIC-DDs. 
 This is viewed as an iterative process where some MIC-DD/Us are 
incrementally approved by the appropriate FSs and working groups.  
z Some MIC-DD/Fs and MIC-DD/Ns may be easily and quickly 
promoted into MIC-DD/Us by reaching agreements.  
 Others may require more effort and time. 
 Some may be  determined to be impractical for a MIC-DD/U and will 
remain as MIC-DD/Fs and MIC-DD/Ns. 
 If assessment using current Use categories determines no potential for 
MDS sharing including Intrinsic, these will be moved back to the PDD 
List.  They will be maintained on the PDD list for future assessment by 
new Use Categories.

MIC Data Flows
z MIC Data Flows are flow diagrams showing how MICs 
are created and used by specific Use Categories.  
z The MIC Data Flows show process (or procedure) 
relationships between the producers, users, and 
custodians & help maintain consistency with JMOIP
z The MIC Data Flows show how MICs are related to 
each other in the Use Categories.  
z The MIC Data Flows show how MICs evolve through 
the hierarchical levels
