This did make me wonder if it is always appropriate to create a detailed archetype for this kind of biomedical data, or should it perhaps simply be stored/referenced as a blob or link.

Melvin is convenor in CEN/tc251 among other things. He can point you to relevant standards. -3- Study the relevant ECG standard. -4- And then you know what has/can be stored in the EHR.

In this semester ?our finale, we are working with complex data interoperability to an Electronic Health Record (EHR). We are following the openEHR?s EHR architecture standard, and therefore also working with archetypes. We have a few questions we would like you to help us deal with. - What we are trying to investigate is how to represent a recorded ECG-signal in an archetype, and therefore we are wondering what the status is on dealing with ECG-signals as an archetype? So far we haven?t been able to locate an ECG- archetype, only the description of it as an observation-entry. - We have described workflows and clinical information guidelines for the observation and clinical evaluation of an incoming ECG-signal, but we are a bit confused on how to map the clinical information guidelines to an archetype. Can anyone give us an example on how this mapping is done?
