Good Electronic Health Record Update

The openEHR Foundation announce a new version of the GEHR Object Model available, documented in the model architecture document, now published in both HTML and PDF at http://www.gehr.org/technical/model_architecture/gehr_architecture.html .

The system_architecture document has also been published in HTML at http://www.gehr.org/technical/system_architecture/gehr_systems.html .

(For those interested in the HTML output, it was generated straight from the FrameMaker source documents by Quadralay WebWorks).

Finally, there is a new set of formal class interfaces at http://www.gehr.org/technical/source/Documentation/index.html .

The main changes in the new version (d1.0.21) are:

The TRANSACTION model has been significantly updated. The detailed semantics of versioning and exchange are described at http://www.gehr.org/technical/model_architecture/html_model_architecture/Output/Main-record-mgt.html) . For class interfaces, see http://www.gehr.org/technical/source/Documentation/gehr_root/g_gom/g_record/g_transaction/index.html

The DATA cluster has been changed so that all DATA_VALUE descendants (see list at http://www.gehr.org/technical/source/Documentation/gehr_root/k_kernel/k_record/k_data/data_value_links.html ) contain a routine make_from_tokens(tokens: ARRAY[STRING]) to enable use from COM. See for example QUANTITY at http://www.gehr.org/technical/source/Documentation/gehr_root/k_kernel/k_record/k_data/k_quantity/quantity_flatshort.html
