## Post #1 by @Tiago_Pedrosa

Hi everyone,
  I'm looking for sampling OpenEHR records data\. I will like to feed my
repository with some sample data to make some test and try new
services, does anyone knows where can I get that ?
  Thank you for your time, best regards,

Tiago Pedrosa

I would be also interested in this\.

## Post #3 by @Jesus_Bisbal

I second that. Very interested.
I posted a similar request to this list a couple of years ago. It proved difficult.
Indeed, having such sample data is essential for testing, learning the models, etc....

All the best.

For the lack of responses I assume that they are not available\. Is
there at least an openEHR XML instance validator? we could try to make
the instances from scratch and validate them\.

Hi Diego, was on travel so just reckoned this\.\.\.Yes we do have instances, but probably quite odd\. It is made up of a very detailed endoscopy report serialised as XML\.

I'll ask Hong Yul, the technical hero behind it, to send a few examples to you\.

HYY??

Cheers,

Hi Koray, Hong Yul,

I am also interested in receiving a few examples to test with\.
Would it be possible \(and allowed\) to have these data publicly
available on the openEHR wiki?

Cheers,

Roger

Dear Everyone,

sorry for the delay, we at Linköping University have created a number of
XML instance compositions, not very fancy but we would be willing to
share them\. I'll just try to find somewhere to put them\.

Dear Everyone again,

here are some simple COMPOSITION samples, with some Swedish inside\.\.\.

Dear Tiago,

I have attached two openEHR composition instances. One uses encounter composition archetype and another one uses report archetype. Please note they are sample data that can be used for testing purpose only. Data may not be clinically meaningful.

Regards,

Chunlan

Hi Diego, Roger,

As Koray said, ours is a bit odd, as we persist fragments of the whole composition and that's really the level at which we deal\. I've zipped up some instances, each at a cluster level\. Each of these conform to a pretty detailed archetype, which in turn makes up a larger endoscopy report\.

If you want to see the whole composition instance, or want to cross\-check with the archetypes we define, I can happily provide these for you \- just means it'll take a little time :\)

Hope it helps\!
Hong Yul

Hey Hong Yu,

thanks for those pieces of information\. There's no rush for me at all,
but it would be great if in due time you could provide us with the
other pieces you mentioned below\.

Best regards,

Roger
