Thanks - a very full email - I will do my best.
First, in openEHR the schema is constant - based on the reference information model - so we do not have schema's for the archetype. I do not have any data as yet as this archetype is not in use as yet.
Anyway, as for the Family History archetype - I took a look at it and I'd
like to map it to what I'm doing in HL7 which is more genomic-oriented.
Anyway, in my design submission I usually send out the model, the
corresponding schema and a few XML samples but I know you don't like to see
RIM-stuff.... Do you have samples for your archetype? It helps making it
more concrete...
I am happy to see things that do not need Visio that I can make sense of - a gif or something.
Just a quick question: you have a statement saying "code match {[ac0021]}
-- =Relationship(openEHR)
I wonder if that's an existing vocabulary of types of family
relationships... because I'm struggling with the existing HL7 vocab and how
to qualify it with a parental indication.
This is available as part of the editor - an XML file. This is a flat file of vocab domains essential for interoperability and for translating the GUI elements - 340 terms at the moment - shouldn't grow much from there as it is determined by the needs of the reference model. Archetypes carry their own terms if required. (see \terminology in the install directory)
Further on, I'd like to try and add genomic data to this archetype - is
there a way to work on it together? Do you have a registry of archetypes?
I also think of showing it to the physician from Boston with whom I develop
the HL7 model - he is focused on the use case of BRCA.
Cool....I believe that it should be possible to spit out the RMIM specification from the editor - that would be really cool - IBM could benefit from that! We have worked hard to get something that clinicians can respond to.... long way to go but I think we are on the right track. Also, CEN is looking at incorporating ADL into the new 13606 standard as the standard way to represent archetypes.
Cheers, Sam
