ARCHETYPE Differential diagnoses (openEHR-EHR-EVALUATION.differential_diagnoses.v1)

ARCHETYPE IDopenEHR-EHR-EVALUATION.differential_diagnoses.v1
ConceptDifferential diagnoses
DescriptionOne or more possible conditions, problems or diagnoses that may be responsible for a clinical presentation, examination findings and/or test results.
UseTo record details about one or more differential diagnoses that may be responsible for a single clinical presentation, examination findings and/or test results. This archetype has been designed to ensure that all differential diagnoses are recorded using a single model. In a clinical system, it would be expected that each differential diagnosis would be recorded using a separate instance of the 'Per differential' cluster. Each differential diagnosis should be regarded as a temporary diagnostic hypothesis and should only be used in the earliest phases of the diagnostic process. In practice, clinicians may identify a list of one or more differential diagnoses, any one of which may explain the clinical presentation. As more information is gathered from the examination, diagnostic test results, or referrals, the list of differential diagnoses is gradually refined and outliers eliminated until one or more working, provisional, or preliminary diagnosis is determined. If a differential diagnosis is accepted as a likely diagnosis, it is anticipated that it will be formally entered into the health record as a Problem/Diagnosis using the EVALUATION.problem_diagnosis archetype. The CLUSTER.problem_qualifier archetype may be nested within the Problem/Diagnosis archetype to support annotation of the diagnosis as 'working' or 'preliminary'.
MisuseNot to be used to record detailed information about a persistent problem or formal diagnosis - use the EVALUATION.problem_diagnosis for this purpose.
PurposeTo record details about one or more differential diagnoses that may be responsible for a single clinical presentation, examination findings and/or test results.
