ARCHETYPE Heartbeat (openEHR-EHR-OBSERVATION.heartbeat.v0)

ARCHETYPE IDopenEHR-EHR-OBSERVATION.heartbeat.v0
ConceptHeartbeat
DescriptionA series of cardiac cycles of contraction and relaxation.
UseUse to record findings about a series of heartbeats, including rate and regularity. In clinical practice and daily use, the terms 'heart beat' and 'pulse' may be used interchangeably, depending on the context and method of measurement. 'Heart beat' is the broader term that covers any method of measuring the heart action, whereas 'pulse' specifically describes measuring the heart action through the palpation of a pulse. When designing templates for scenarios where it can't be anticipated whether specifically 'heart beat' or specifically 'pulse' will be measured, and it's not important to the clinical scenario to tell them apart, this archetype should be used. When 'heartbeat' and 'pulse ' are both being recorded, use this archetype to record only the heartbeat measured at or near the heart. A companion archetype has been created as a specialisation of this archetype - OBSERVATION.heartbeat-pulse - to specifically record the 'Pulse' as pressure waves in the arteries. The measured heart rate can be recorded using a device, although the R-R rate recorded as part of an ECG should be recorded separately. Measurements such as the maximum heart rate during an interval can be recorded using 'Maximum' event.
MisuseNot to be used to record findings specifically about a series of arterial pulses, observed directly from a single arterial site. Use the specialised OBSERVATION.heartbeat-pulse archetype for this purpose. Not to be used to record the heart rate measured as R-R rate in the context of an Electrocardiograph report. Use the OBSERVATION.ecg archetype for this purpose. Not to be used to record other details of a cardiovascular examination or assessment. Use the CLUSTER.exam-heart archetype or other archetypes from the CLUSTER.exam family for the purpose of recording physical examination findings, such as the position of the apex beat, murmurs and bruits. Not to be used to record fetal heart rate. Use the OBSERVATION.fetal_heart archetype for this purpose. Not to be used to record a pulse deficit. Use the OBSERVATION.pulse_deficit archetype for this purpose. Not to be used to record concepts such as "Target heart rate". Use specific archetypes such as EVALUATION.goal for these purposes.
PurposeTo record findings about a series of heartbeats.
