Hi David, I haven't been involved in the instruction/action modelling recently but I know that this principle of having the same item structure archetype girl the activity and action was preferred in the early days, it has recently deviated for some archetypes at least as the information requirements didn't align with this principle. I will leave it to the modellers to comment further.
I personally think that there should be more information in the action than the instruction but can also see the efficiencies of having minimal information in the action when an action can occur many times for any particular instruction. I guess it comes down to the the use case but my rule would be that only information that is common to all actions should go in the instruction otherwise you need to update the instruction as you go through the state transitions, which in my view is not desirable.

That is the best way to ensure the systems work when retrieving information. For example if you query about medications taken by the patient you only have to query the ACTION archetype instead of searching information scattered in other archetypes.

A medication taken should be an action or an observation? What matters more, the event of taking the drug ot yhat thr drug eas taken? I think the latter can occur when a doctor asks the patient for medication taken. I agree the real time record of the event can also occur. Thanks!

For example, a medication taken without a previous prescription. That information has to be stored not just as a log, but as proper clinical data. So it seems OK that ACTION includes part of the clinical record.

With tgis I mean: ACTION recording might be used ti send notifications to other statems (like whe a lab test is done, the results are sent or queried), or to keep the log of real world events that happened and may change the status of another entity (i.e. INSTRUCTION/ACTIVITY). What is the opinion of the community about the role of the ACTION ENTRY in the openEHR Information Model and as a EHR entity, from the point of view of it's use in current systems? Thanks, Pablo.
