Well, this is dilemna I guess - it's data about a person, created from a physical activity - but it's not a clinical observation. It is being used for healthcare purposes, albeit with very specialised goals - the data is used to set safe training exertion ranges etc for the atheletes. I may end up doing it with an ad-hoc system - I just thought it would be interesting to consider how it might be done using openehr. Andrew
