ARCHETYPE Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) scale (openEHR-EHR-OBSERVATION.karnofsky_performance_status_scale.v1)

ARCHETYPE IDopenEHR-EHR-OBSERVATION.karnofsky_performance_status_scale.v1
ConceptKarnofsky Performance Status (KPS) scale
DescriptionAn assessment scale used to quantify functional capacity in an individual.
UseUse to record the result of a Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) scale assessment. While the original 1949 paper by Karnofsky et al is referenced in this archetype, it has not been possible to obtain a copy to verify the original content. However, this archetype has been designed to reflect the practical use of Karnofsky Performance Status scale rather than an academic construct and the current wording reflects descriptions found in common use within the other references.
MisuseNot to be used to record variations of the KPS scale, such as the Thorne-modified Karnofsky (TKPS) or the Australia-modified Karnofsky (AKPS). Use purpose-specific archetypes for this purpose.
PurposeTo record the result of a Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) scale assessment.
