Dear Koray,
First: congratulations on finishing your PhD!! It would be fantastic to have such an archetype. I'd probably favour a smaller and more general archetype for this (like the blood pressure one), but I am happy to go with the MST one too and we may be able to do both of them anyway. I think it is important to pick an archetype that has been through the mill a bit and is fairly stable (so that later changes in 11 languages are limited), the MST colon archetype seems to fulfil this as far as I can tell as a non-clinician? I'd offer to do the German translation of it, if a German speaking doctor (Thilo maybe??) agrees to help for the parts where in-depth medical knowledge is required. You could add Farsi as the 12th language...Shahla?

One thing challenges me with multilingual archetypes is to extend my MST archetypes so as to include all 11 officially released translations (English, French, Italian, German, Portuguese, Spanish, Russian, Hungarian, Czech, Turkish and Japanese) within the ontology section! As there are many MST archetypes, I recommend starting with existing MST_Colon archetype first. Of course I will need support from people who speak those languages as I am not familiar with them all. It is a lot of work but not that I have finished my Ph.D. studies I have more time and will to support openEHR community. So what do you (all) think? I guess it would be a good benchmark/test archetype to test in numerous implementations. Best regards, Koray Atalag, MD, Ph.D. Sebastian Garde wrote: Dear all, There is a new version of the Archetypefinder available at http://www.archetypes.com.au where you can easily find the latest openEHR archetypes. Most noticable changes: * we have included a browsable mindmap for each of the archetypes now (see e.g. http://www.archetypes.com.au/archetypefinder/mindmaps/mindmap.html?openE HR-EHR-OBSERVATION.blood_pressure.v1.mm for the Blood pressure mindmap). Murat Goek from the University of Goettingen, Germany did the hard work on this one during his internship here with us. Feedback we got so far is that mindmaps bring archetypes closer to clinicians and makes it easier to organise and discuss the content necessary for an archetype. We would be really interested in your view on this! * we reference all the latest openEHR archetypes in all languages the archetype is available. This includes the approx. 50 archetypes that have recently been translated into German by Jasmin Buck, University of Heidelberg, Germany and myself. You can easily find them when you select Language=German in the Country tab. (There will be Spanish archetypes too soon I am being told!). * In the advanced search, you can search for additional meta-data now like 'other contributors' As always, please let me know any comments you may have.
