ARCHETYPE Dosage (openEHR-EHR-CLUSTER.dosage.v1)

ARCHETYPE IDopenEHR-EHR-CLUSTER.dosage.v1
ConceptDosage
DescriptionThe combination of a medication amount and administration timing for a single day, in the context of a medication order or medication management.
UseUse to record the combination of a medication amount and the administration timing for a single day, as part of a medication order or medication management or for other appropriate therapeutic/prescribable items. The timing pattern for a single day can be as simple as a single administration time, or multiple administration times with varying levels of complexity. Timing details which are not within a single day e.g weekly or monthly timings are carried in the CLUSTER 'Timing - non-daily' archetype carried within the CLUSTER 'Therapeutic direction' archetype. In the context of a therapeutic INSTRUCTION, this archetype may be inserted into the 'Structured dose and timing directions' SLOT in the 'Therapeutic direction' CLUSTER to record the dose and timing details of the pattern of single intended administrations of a therapeutic item. In the context of an ACTION archetype insert this archetype directly into the 'Amount' SLOT to record the dose and timing of the actual administration of a therapeutic item. Specific administration start/stop times should be specified within a contained CLUSTER 'Timing - daily' archetype.
PurposeTo record the combination of a medication amount and the administration timing within a single day, as part of a medication order or medication management or for other appropriate therapeutic/prescribable items.
