Hi everyone,

We're trying to model an operative note document - therefore we used the 
procedure archetype openEHR-EHR-ACTION.procedure.v1 and specialised it by 
adding other archetypes into the procedure details slot. Within the description 
of the procedure archetype it says
'Additional structured and detailed information about the procedure can be 
captured using purpose-specific archetypes inserted into the 'Procedure detail' 
slot'
but
'this archetype will be used to record only what was done during the procedure. 
Separate archetypes will be used to record the other required components of the 
Operation Report'.
I am a bit confused - we added something like specimens taken, devices, 
medication during surgery. Do you think it is valid to add these archetypes 
into the slot procedure details?
And what about elements like preoperative diagnosis, risks and anesthesia? I 
think these are detailed information for the surgery but they do not belong to 
the surgery itself - so they shouldn't be added.
What do you think?


Thanks for your help and ideas.


Kind regards
Antje
