Dr Rusty Maynard has posted a Request for Comments document concerning
open source medication management. Specifically in TORCH but in a broad
general sense this paper applies to all open source healthcare
applications.

I am using the term 'assumed' value in the archetype editor. This seems
helpful as it means that it does not have to be recorded and it is normal
practice. A single BP reading is assumed to be sitting - possibly lying -
but not standing. Weight is assumed to be measured in light clothing an

Absolutely! I'm sure there are thousands of un-tapped pockets of
technical brilliance out in our provider community... but most very busy
with patients and, with the exception of nut-cases like myself, probably
not THAT passionately interested in information technology. However,

Hi Chris,
Good comments. Don't hold back!
Regarding Providers I must say that they surprise me at times. My primary
Physician obtained a degree in Electrical Engineering prior to his medical
degrees. He has modernized his internal medicine department proficiently.
He could use some help on the r
Thomas,
Thanks for the comments. My only caution about asking physicians to
comment on the desirability of EHR-system proposals is that they may not
understand [what we mean by] our questions... and we probably won't
really understand [what they mean by] their responses.
When we ask for input fro
Dear Chris,
CEN/TC251 is co-operating with OPENEHR.
We are in the process to define a next version of our EHR standard.
It is basicly a standard that defines a Document and facilities for handling
it properly. Plus it will enable to locate doucment items in space and time.

Hi Chris,
Great response!
Would like to learn what the US Providers want and need from a system
like the proposed OpenEHR project. Contributors to the project are at
liberty to publish; but the remaining, quite numerous, Providers may well
be unaware of the existence of such projects and unable t
Hi Chris,
One thought to keep in mind regarding:
"The EHR efforts seem to want to standardize both the data AND
the horse it rode in on.":
The DATA embedded in an OpenEHR standardized system can be both
extracted and modified. My hunch is that the final OpenEHR standardized
system may still be
Thomas,
This sounds workable to me. If I am understanding you correctly, we
need one (and only one??) registry in which anyone, anywhere (who is
authorized, of course) could look up a patient and determine which
"region" had master control at the moment over his record. If I'm a

Hi All,
With a background in fault tolerant computing I have a built-in penchant for
distributed files that are exact/backup copies of a master. Works wonders
for
financial transactions.
I don't believe that this model fits EHRs especially since one can conceive
