Hi, As someone who is an OpenEHR novice can you give me any tips - there is so much information on the website it is difficult to know where to start.
While I have yet to understand the full potential of the framework, I would like to start with something simple. Suppose a surgeon signs onto my system and wishes to create a new progress note. On paper he may have written (swapping out the <>) ____________________ <age, sex> with <ESLD> admitted with <dehydration> Received <n> ml/kg of volume resuscitation last night. Went to OR for <CVL> placement, transferred to ICU for management after OR. a) Send <bacterial infection> <if stooling> b) <Re|start> <med> for wound infection c) Check weights d) etc. _____________________ How does OpenEHR come into play with this action - Should provide lookups or force sentence structure? Should it be used to define and store the content into discrete data? What data source or service would my code interact with? I guess I have many questions, and I apologize in advance if I miss some concepts. thanks! Greg Boston, MA http://www.patientos.org
