Hi All, COMMENTS (SHORT LIST):
1)TOOLSETS Should support: a)Humans (practitioners, administrators, support personnel, patients and their support groups) This should support visualizations, e.g., VIEW/MODIFY/JOIN/SEVER/PARTITION/INTEGRATE, for a human operator b)local/remote software processes/procedures/intelligent agents This should support software-controlled communications and groups of software packages that will permit automatic and user-controlled data-related operations, e.g., merge notes and records, monitor notes and records, respond to and generate events, evaluate, verify, certify notes and records. Should be able to distinguish in the future whether a human operator or a software package. INTEGRATION'S Should support: a)multiple users/software packages/both, e.g., trade/log/modify notes globally, cross-border/cross-discipline communications/records/notes in real-time/query-response/delayed b)update records and notes to reflect integrations/agreements/disagreements/issues/TODOs c)incorporate place/system/platform/packages/contributors/comments into notes and records so that future communications/records will be able to precisely identify/evaluate/review/contact prior communicators EXAMPLE: See 'smartie' buried in the information at: http://www.openclinical.org or: http://www.smartie-ist.org/ Reading MedNotes makes smartie a handy tool. A similar tool should be available to read the 'dissimilar' MedNote-type files from a GUI tool capable of supporting the desired operations. NOTES: -Developing this tool is not a small task! -The number of different types of MedNotes is currently an unknown PROPOSAL: Need additional input on information that should be integrated with the GUI tool. Comments/suggestions welcomed. -Thomas Clark - If you have any questions about using this list, please send a message to d.lloyd at openehr.org
