ARCHETYPE Respirations (openEHR-EHR-OBSERVATION.respiration.v1)

ARCHETYPE IDopenEHR-EHR-OBSERVATION.respiration.v1
ConceptRespirations
DescriptionThe characteristics of spontaneous breathing by an individual.
UseUse to record the observed and measured characteristics of spontaneous breathing by an individual, including respiratory rate, depth and rhythm. Respirations are commonly recorded as one component of Vital signs.
MisuseNot to be used to record the physical examination of the respiratory system - use the physical examination family of archetypes for this purpose, such as CLUSTER.exam-chest or CLUSTER.exam-lung. Not to be used to record other measurements related to breathing - use specific archetypes for the purpose, for example OBSERVATION.pulse_oximetry. Not to be used to record functional assessments of breathing - use specific archetypes for the purpose, for example OBSERVATION.pulmonary_function. Not to be used for recording details about individuals who are undergoing assisted ventilation.
PurposeTo record the characteristics of spontaneous breathing by an individual.
