FW: SV: ACTIVITY and timing

2013-08-15 Thread Heath Frankel
 timing in every ACTIVITY.
(I guess clinical modeling should be done with specialization some way to 
define an Action  Archetype with timing information).

 

Use the openEHR-EHR-CLUSTER.timing.v1 (or another defined structure) 

? to be able to share timing information as Archetype defined structure 
between openEHR enabled systems . 

? to be able to let the Clinical Modeling people define the complexity 
of timing in HealthCare

 

I can also see some challenges with the optional attribute WF_DEFINITION on the 
INSTRUCTION class and the mandatory attribute timing on the ACTIVITY class. I 
think there will be some correlation between these attributes in a given 
use-case.

Well, the appendix at http://www.biomedcentral.com/1472-6947/13/57#sec9 is
our attempt to create a very compact openEHR intro, if you feel that it is
useful, then feel free to link to it from the learning centre page or some
other place.

 tutorial is best.

  Skim through the 
 documenthttp://www.openehr.org/releases/1.0.2/architecture/overview.pdf to get
 an overview then go back to that and other documents for more detail
 when needed. Also there are some videos 
 athttp://www.openehr.org/resources/learning_centre if you prefer
 watching over reading.

 If you don't mind using alpha-versions of work in progress, then feel
 free to do some openEHR hands-on experiments 
 usinghttps://github.com/LiU-IMT/EEE described in the 
 paperhttp://www.biomedcentral.com/1472-6947/13/57 (Appendix B 
 athttp://www.biomedcentral.com/1472-6947/13/57#sec9 is a very compact
 openEHR intro, perhaps too compact.)

 I hope the instructions at https://github.com/LiU-IMT/EEE/wiki/install
 helps you get it up and running. Try running and modifying AQL queries
 on the provided example content for example.

SV: ACTIVITY and timing

  Hi Thomas, thanks for the input, is great to
understand the rationale behind ACTIVITY.timing.



Right now I've more questions than proposals :)



...The RM says that ACTIVITY.timing should always be
  present, and i believe it should be, otherwise processing
  software doesn't know what to do...



Should all INSTRUCTION/ACTIVITIES be processed by a
  processing software?



My guess is no, but maybe I'm wrong. It would be great to
  hear arguments on that.






The need for timing seems to be required for medication
  INSTRUCTIONs, or generalizing that: all INSTRUCTIONS that
  involve some kind of event repetition/frequency.



But what about LAB/RAD requests? Those are one time events,
  and their execution depends on scheduling, i.e. timing on
  request could not be something formal and specific. In
  practice, the only time specification I know for LAB/RAD
  requests is the urgent flag, and the real time of execution
  depends on the resource availability on each health center.



What do you think about timing specification of ACTIVITIES
  that have no repetitions?
What values should we use for ACTIVITY.timing when
  recording a RAD request?


  



There is no assumption in ACTIVITY.time that the activity is
repeated. In the GTS syntax, you can just as easily express a
one-off event at a certain time as you can a repeated event. If you
use cron syntax, I think you just put a full date / time from memory
(although that's pretty unusual usage of cron syntax). 


I understand that timing can express just one date or a set of dates, what I 
try to understand is more about semantics: what's the purpose / meaning of 
having just one date on ACTIVITY.timing?
If the answer is to specify the exact date/time that the ACTIVITY should be 
executed, the RAD/LAB case can be taken as a counter example, because the 
execution time depends on scheduling, and that is done after the recording the 
ACTIVITY.
I don't know if I made that clear, please let me know if my question is not 
clear or if my understanding of the timing attribute is incorrect.


One crucial thing is to ensure that these data remain interoperable.
To do that, we need to limit the syntaxes that could be used in
ACTIVITY.timing to a reasonably small number, and standardise their
use. I am not sure for example, if it will be a good idea to have 3
ways of expressing '3 times/day for 7 days' or other typical things.


Is not a problem to have several ways of expressing timing, as long as those 
are specified publicly. Then we just need to define some terminilogy subset to 
express each notation identifier e.g. as MIME-TYPE for email content. Then when 
we parse the expression, knowing the term id, we can choose the right parser. 
Obviously we need to write those, that's the easy part, but is easy only if all 
the notation specs are available and the term subset is specified.
