... You describe a very big picture and sounds logic, so we'll have: Level 1: archetypes (for model complete data sets about a concept, general and specialized ones) Level 2: structural templates (for localized use of archetypes, general and specialized templates) Level 3: define the use of the structural templates GUI Templates: define directives over a couple of Structural Templates to create a graphic representations of some archetyped data. Message Templates: define directives to structure archetyped data into messages with some syntax (HL7 v2, v3, 13606, CCR, CCD, CDA ...). to do non-openEHR message syntaxes, it requires not just another 'template' (in fact, not much be needed here), but a transformation from the operational template (OPT) form to the target form, e.g. CCR XSD or whatever. Doing futurology here, we could have these mapping rules defined inside the Message Templates, or may be just referencing wich tranformation to use (the output syntax) will suffice. But I'm not sure what will be the inside of one of these templates. Report Templates: create reports with aggregated data and graphic representations like charts. Can be used by GUI Templates. Information Aggregation Templates: to define data aggregation rules over a set of archetyped data. Can be used by GUI Templates, Report Templates, etc. Rule Templates: to define rules over a set of archetyped data to check validity, consistency, etc, etc. Can be used by Decision Support Modules, e.g. to check medication reactions. ... I am not sure what some of these would look like, but I suspect they will come into existence one day... I'm not sure neither, but I'm sure these templates will be part of any openEHR-based EHR. -Pablo. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
