Hi Joaquin, openEHR archetype/template Repositories
openEHR Foundation www.openehr.org/knowledge NEHTA Australia http://dcm.nehta.org.au/ckm/# re Malaria and Tuberculosis - it depends exactly what you mean. There is a problem-diagnosis archetype which might capture some of the required information (making use of a terminology) but I suspact there may be other disease-specific monitoring/ therapy information which would be treated distinctly. in openEHR we try to create small information components which can be shared throughout and between systems, rather than necessarily directly mirroring a specific dataset e.g. for TB we might use A Problem-diagnosis archetype for the original diagnosis details A Medication archetype to describe therapy past/current A Review archetype to handle follow-up A Microbiology archetype to handle lab results In use these would be brought together in a single template, which better reflects the use-case for TB, but we can use all of the same archetypes for malaria but using a different template. I have just found the openMRS TB module at https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/MDR-TB+Module+User+Guide and will try and find a little time to work out how we might approach this with openEHR. The main thing to note with this approach is that it takes longer to do the 'first module' but each subsequent module is easier, and faster to model.
