    • getMSH

      public MSH getMSH()

      Returns the first repetition of NTE (Notes and Comments) - creates it if necessary

    • getNTE

      public NTE getNTE(int rep)

      Returns a specific repetition of NTE (Notes and Comments) - creates it if necessary

      Parameters:
      rep - The repetition index (0-indexed, i.e. the first repetition is at index 0)
