Hi all,

I have a question regarding dates and times in openehr.

I read the section "Time in the EHR" on page 29 of the document "The 
openEHR Reference Model - EHR Information Model".

As far as I understood it, OBSERVATION.data.origin and 
OBSERVATION.data.event[x].time must not necessarily be within the 
interval COMPOSITION.context.start_time and COMPOSITION.context.end_time 
or after COMPOSITION.context.start_time.

Is this right?

An example:

A blood pressure measured by a patient on 2008-01-01 (YYYY-MM-DD) and 
reported to her physician on 2008-01-02 during an encounter, would have 
as COMPOSITION.context.start_time the date 2008-01-02 and as 
OBSERVATION.data.origin as well as OBSERVATION.data.event[x].time the 
date 2008-01-01.

For the sake of simplicity I omitted the time within the dates.


Kind Regards
Bruno
