Cluster Archetype 'Environmental Conditions'

[Maximilian_Meixner]

Hey everbody,

I’m working on a pneumology use case that links asthma and COPD with environmental factors (among others). Therefore the participants are equipped with a mobile weather station for their homes that consists of an inside module and an outside module. Each module measures temperature and relative humidity. Additionally the inside module records CO2 concentration in the air inside a room and atmospheric pressure.
We also obtain concentrations of air pollutants (e.g. O3, NO2, CO, PM10, PM2.5) measured by the German Environment Agency.

Looking for suitable archetypes, I came across the cluster ‘environmental conditions’ (openEHR-EHR-CLUSTER.environmental_conditions.v0). However, this was originally intended to include in the archetype ‘body temperature’, which is not our observable.

Is it possible to make the ‘environmental conditions’ an OBSERVATION archetype and extend it accordingly?

Thanks for your help,
Max

Hi

This thread probably gives the answer

Weather conditions and assessment of pain

Hello! I’m currently involved in an arthritis project that collects self-reported data on joint pain. One of our survey questions asks participants to specify when they experience pain and the corresponding weather conditions at that moment (e.g., sunny day, snow, rainy day, etc). While reviewing the CKMs, I couldn’t locate an archetype that addresses this specific scenario. I’m curious if there has been any prior consideration or development of a case that involves gathering such information, …

Basically you need a simple New observation archetype which wraps the existing cluster archetype
