Hi Pekka,

As per Ian and Silje’s comments the CLUSTER.symptom-pain in the NEHTA CKM 
(actually the Australian Digital Health Agency now!) is out of date. Pain VAS 
is now managed within the CLUSTER.symptom_sign archetype that has been reviewed 
and published.

In addition there are a few standalone pain-related instruments/scores/scales 
that have been added to the international CKM in the past week or so, proposed 
by a colleague in Argentina. So if you are actually looking for scales to 
record pain out of the context of a symptom, eg as part of an OBS chart then 
these might also be useful for consideration, especially the ‘Oucher’. They are 
modelled as OBSERVATIONs as they are frequently used as standalone clinical 
assessments.

Subject: Fwd: Archetype for pain scale (VAS)

Hi all,

Looking for an archetype for recording VAS scale. Searching suggested that 
there used to be a CLUSTER.Symptom-pain [Pain symptom] archetype in the 
international CKM.

I could only find it from the NEHTA CKM but not from the international one. Any 
thoughts on this?

Thanks,

-Pekka
