ARCHETYPE Body temperature (openEHR-EHR-OBSERVATION.body_temperature.v2)

ARCHETYPE IDopenEHR-EHR-OBSERVATION.body_temperature.v2
ConceptBody temperature
DescriptionA measurement of the body temperature, which is a surrogate for the core body temperature of the individual.
UseUsed for recording the measurement of an individual's body temperature, which is a surrogate for the core body temperature of the individual. Additional clusters can be included to provide additional state data - including environmental conditions and exertion details, where appropriate. Please Note: The site and method of recording may need to be displayed to the end user to facilitate accurate interpretation of the temperature recorded.
MisuseThis archetype is not to be used to record the temperature of any other object. This archetype is not to be used to record the temperature of a part of the body in isolation e.g. temperature of the sole of the foot as a part of chronic diabetes management.
PurposeTo record the measured temperature of a person - as a surrogate for the core body temperature.
