For info, I have copied below the replies that Naji has already received on the implementers list. Thomas suggested he repost here for better clinical input = more comments welcome.
============= You should check the tutorial on how to build archetypes by Ocean Informatics: http://www.oceaninformatics.com/ocean-informatics-resources/Tutorials.html :: Jos? Hil?rio Almeida I would also suggest looking at the Help facilities in Clinical Knowledge Manager www.openehr.org/knowledge, and reading Heather Leslie's blog at http://omowizard.wordpress.com/ Briefly the process we use somewhat depends on whether the end-point is an archetype for general use or template for specific use, but I suggest you re-post on the clinical list as Thomas suggests and we can answer in more detail there :: Ian McNicoll ====================================================== In general there are 2 approaches to modelling 1. Project /template driven In this case there is a clear specific project or implementation, usually requiring the production of a Template as the basis for a message or application data-entry. My usual approach is to create mind-map of the user's clinical model/data -entry requirements, then gradually re-format this to correspond to existing archetypes or to identify new archetypes that need to be created, critically deciding whether these are of purely local interest or whether they might be of broader interest, and therefore need to be modelled more 'purely' for maximal interoperability. This involves the same kind of process for the 'archetype-driven' modelling discussed next. 2. Archetype driven This is the kind of process that CKM currently supports. We again tend to start with a mindmap to organise our ideas around a single clinical concept e.g 'Adverse reaction' or 'VO2max' . This is more flexible in the early stages than moving directly to archetypes. This can be time-consuming as it requires considerable research to ensure that the broad requirements for a maximal or inclusive dataset have been addressed, and that as far as possible we reflect current, best practice. Once the mindmap is reasonably mature we would create the associated archetype. You should definitely try to follow the current active Team reviews on CKM. A few more will be starting quite soon. By all means adopt the archetypes or join as a reviewer.
