ARCHETYPE IDopenEHR-EHR-OBSERVATION.hirsutism_scales.v1
ConceptHirsutism scales
DescriptionA grouping of related assessment scales used to quantify distribution and growth of body hair in women.
UseUse to record pattern of growth of androgen-sensitive terminal hair in women. This archetype has been designed to be inclusive of all hirsutism scales that are associated with the original scale originally proposed by Ferriman and Gallwey which includes eleven body sites. The extended version is inclusive of all the original sites plus the sideburn area and the perineum. The modified Ferriman-Gallwey score, includes nine body sites, excluding the lower arm, lower leg, sideburn area and perineum. Use a template to constrain the data elements to represent the dataset for the required scale.
MisuseNot to be used to record information about generalised or excessive hair growth that does not represent hirsutism.
PurposeTo record hair scores for up to thirteen body areas and a total sum of scores, in order to quantify excessive male-pattern hair growth in women.
