Dear Everyone, Background: We are in Sweden starting a number of clinical archetype-construction projects and we are hoping to re-use as much as possible from the openEHR repository by specialisation.
So to my problem: Looking at the openEHR-EHR-OBSERVATION.body_weight.v1 archetype (hereafter named BW) and the openEHR-EHR-OBSERVATION.body_weight-birth.v1 archetype (BWB), BWB does not seem to be a specialisation of BW. BWB specifies the event to be birth and clothing state to be naked, but relaxes the unit restriction to allow grams (with "g" as the abbreviated from, not "gm", see ISO Guide 31, item 3.1-a). Then to my specific questions: 1. Are the BW and BWB wrong and should be corrected? 2. Can BWB be understood without BW or must each restriction be stated explicitly? E.g., does BWB inherit the protocol restriction from BW? 3. What about weight gain and weight loss in BW?
