(Clinical) Information ModelsMyths and Facts
• They are NOT reference information models; – as in HL7 v3 RIM, openEHR/ISO13606 or FHIR resource ontology!
• They are pure representations of health information
• They may employ a number of formats and methods; inc.– Mindmaps, pdf, UML, XML/XSD, Archetypes, FHIR resources and even
OO language implementations
• For max semantic interoperability & computability: formal reference information model – but can be very generic!
• Latest buzzword: Detailed Clinical Models (DCM)
What’s in the name?
Terminology: Labels/codes attached to atomic concepts (mostly without explicit context)
– Diabetes Mellitus, ear ache, left hip, CT scan etc.
Some have hierarchy (ICD) & relationships (SNOMED)
Boundary Problem Terminology binding
Information Model: structure and semantics of concrete clinical concepts w/ context
– Blood pressure measurement, lab test result, discharge summary, adverse reaction, prescription etc.

Problem/Diagnosis Archetype (Nehta)
Archetype terminology binding
Open specs, tools and content for representing health information & building EHR– Based on 18+ years of international implementation experience
including Good European Health Record Project– Origin of ISO/CEN 13606 EHR standard
Not-for-profit organisation - established in 2001 www.openEHR.org
“Inside Systems” vs HIE Separation of clinical
and technical worlds• Big international community
& Archetypes• FHIR resources and Archetypes are closely related
– should avoid reinvention at all costs!• Archetype FHIR resource conversion is expected
to be seamless– Archetypes are maximal datasets; as opposed to– FHIR resources include most commonly used items
(e.g. 80%) with an option to extend as needed (e.g. 20%)
• An opportunity exists for FHIR to leverage openEHR content, tooling and expertise

What is a Content Model?• IT IS A REFERENCE LIBRARY – of validated information models for health
information exchange (and more!)
• Consists of maximal datasets (as opposed to minimal)– normalised using a standard EHR record organisation (openEHR)– Expressed as reusable and computable models – Archetypes
• Top level organisation follows CCR
• Only relevant items bound to SNOMED, ICD, LOINC etc.
• Further detail provided by:– Existing relevant sources (CCDA, Nehta, epSoS, HL7 FHIR etc.)– Extensions (of above) and new Archetypes (NZ specific)
• Each HIE content (CDA/FHIR/v2) will include one or more models and formally conform
Usage of the Content Model
Extending ECM• Addition of new models• Making existing models more specific
– powerful Archetype specialisation mechanism:– Lab result > HbA1C result, Lipid profiles etc.
