Hi Christian, I now have a few days off and I (hopefully) will be able to zip the Littlefish material across to you. I would recommend that the Resmed team a take a look at the requirements http://www.littlefish.com.au/lfproject/requirements/00%20overview_of_eventua l_functions_f.htm which are based on the Australian Clinical & Administrative General Practice Computer Systems Consultancy of 1997.
The papers recommend GEHR compliance.I believe they provide the specs for any sensible development My strong recommendation for Resmed would be to talk with Sam , Thomas or Peter or indeed any of the openEHR mob regarding making developments interoperable with the GEHR Kernel. It is IMHO the best way for OSS projects to get the support /useage of medical institutions because of the strong medical /historical /intenational background of the project. We need to remember that the medical professsion is very conservative and adoption will only come with the solid evidence that GEHR provides. Climbs off soap box:-)) I will get the material to you ASAP Best wishes Chris Fraser ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christian Heller" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, April 17, 2002 6:43 PM Subject: Re: LinuDent, tk_fp, odontolinux datastructure + Littlefish > > I think a cooperative redesign of the database structure is a > > great idea.
