CONTRIBUTION - 2 versions at once There is a particular problem with results that are deemed to be incorrect as the specimen is damaged - haemolysed blood samples being the most common (See textural results to quantities thread). If the machine read data is to be preserved in openEHR then this would need to be over written with the correct result and both compositions saved at the same time - otherwise some other agent might base some process on the interim situation where the first composition is saved even for a microsecond. We think this relates to machine processed data - but keeping medical student entries might be dealt with in some environments in the same manner.
ACCESS CONTROL to interim reports There will be times when the access to an interim report needs to be controlled - such as an abnormal result from a lab that has not been signed off by the final arbitor...but it may need to be available to a particular team. Our access control models need to deal with this.
