Templates for OpenEHR

Hello to all!

At the moment I am studying some concepts of the OpenEHR model: archetypes, ADL and templates. I found documentation for the first two concepts (archetypes and ADL). I downloaded some examples from a web page, I check CKM Manager to understand how archetypes are created, I downloaded a workbench, etc.

But I have a lot of questions about templates on OpenEHR. And on the community web page, they explain only a few things (“Which template?”, “The purpose of the templates” and “Why the template?”). Does anyone know where I can find more information on templates in OpenEHR? Specifically, I would like to know the template definition language (or equivalent): how to create a template, the meaning of tags, how to translate templates, etc.

Thank you very much!

A template is something that you should use at the software level, while archetypes are more concerned with defining the data processed by the software. On the template, you indicate the complete clinical documents in just one file, using many archetypes.

I recommend using Operational Templates (OPT) in the software because it is just one large XML file with all the data and metadata needed to implement such a clinical document (data structure, constraints, terminology).

To create an OPT, you need the Ocean Information template designer. The template diagram is here: https://github.com/openEHR/reference-models/blob/master/models/openEHR/Release-1.0.2/XSD/Template.xsd

OPT XSD may be included in the template designer, but not sure about it. You can request from the openEHR email lists where the authors of the tool can provide you with more information. So, there is currently no template definition language. But with the help of ADL, a new version of ADL (in development), archetypes and templates will be indicated.

It is usually best to ask a specific question.

You can find these recent discussions, as well as the previous discussion on the openEHR technical mailing list, as well as a useful developer mailing list:
