Indirect Oximetry

Hi Folks,

quick question (hope this has not been asked before. Is there a way to quickly search in the archive?). As far I’m able to work with the CKM, it seems it has never been discussed why events in the indirect oximetry archetype have a limit of 1. Is there a reason for this limitation while other vital parameters I know of may contain an unlimited number of events?

I know that I would be able to change the archetype for our use case (automized vital parameter monitoring at ICUs) but I would like to get some opinions on this first. Thanks!

Best,

Hi Folks,

Sorry, this was supposed to be sent to the "clinical" list. Appologies! :slight_smile:

I think you might have an old version of this archetype. In the openEHR.org CKM this limitation was fixed by Ian McNicoll in March 2013. I believe the 0..1 occurrences constraint originally was an error.

Oops, I must have overlooked it in the CKM. Twice. You are completly right, our version was outdated. Thank you very much!

Best,

Birger
