Has anyone struggled converting PQRS files? I've downloaded 7-Win Zip and XML Notepad, per GE's documentation, but get "invalid file - missing tags" and "corrupt file" errors. GE has a responsibility to provide "readable" files in our view. Has anyone else struggled with all of this?

So many steps! For those who need the first steps, QRDA1 gives you a file for every patient measured and QRDA3 consolidates them. 7-Zip lets you unzip and specify the password you put in when requesting the QRDA files from the CQR dashboard.

I've been able to display the summary information of the QRDA xml files by using XML Notepad, but the key is to point to a stylesheet file. CDA.xsl is what it's looking for.
I downloaded a copy of CDA.xsl from the Lantana Group, which seems reputable. I've seen copies of their stuff on the NIST.gov website. Get it here: http://www.lantanagroup.com/resources/free-tools/

Then what you do is to open your file in XML Notepad and go to the XSL Output tab. Next to XSLT Location, browse to where you saved CDA.xsl and then click the Transform button. Too easy, right?

The official GE XSL stylesheets are located in the database in a table called XSLDATA.

I saved mine as centricity.xsl. You can then modify the xml file and make this the first line of the file:

Once you do that it will open with the stylesheet applied in your web browser. I use this for viewing CCDA's. I have not done anything with the PQRS files.
