| ARCHETYPE ID | openEHR-EHR-OBSERVATION.faecal_output.v0 |
|---|---|
| Concept | Faecal output |
| Description | The measurement of faeces excreted from the body. |
| Use | Use to record details about faecal output. This archetype can be used to record details about:
Each measurement should be recorded using a separate instance of this archetype. If an individual has diarrhoea, a fluid balance chart may require inclusion of this archetype alongside multiple instances of OBSERVATION.fluid_output and OBSERVATION.fluid_input archetype to capture all of the various inputs and outputs, plus a single instance of the OBSERVATION.fluid_balance to record the overall fluid status. |
| Misuse | Not to be used to record fluid input. Use OBSERVATION.fluid_input for this purpose. Not to be used to record fluid output, other than diarrhoea. Use OBSERVATION.fluid_output for this purpose. Not to be used to record fluid balance calculations or to record the calculation of insensible fluid loss. Use OBSERVATION.fluid_balance for this purpose. |
| Purpose | To record details about faecal output. |

| Method | Method: The approach used to quantify the amount of faeces.

| Output device | Output device: Details of the device that was used to collect the faeces. * Include: openEHR-EHR-CLUSTER.device.v1 and specialisations Exclude: All not explicitly included archetypes |

| Extension | Extension: Additional information required to capture local content or to align with other reference models/formalisms. e.g. Local information requirements or additional metadata to align with FHIR or CIMI equivalents. Include: All not explicitly excluded archetypes |
| data | |
| Amount | Amount: The amount of faeces excreted. If absorbant material, such as diapers and dressings, are weighed as part of managing faecal output, the weight will need to be converted to a volume or mass for recording. Property: Volume Units:

| Faecal details | Faecal details: Additional details about the faeces, including macroscopic appearance or other tests not currently captured in the structured data. For example: the colour of the faeces. Include: openEHR-EHR-CLUSTER.exam_ |
| Comment | Comment: Additional narrative about the faecal output not captured in other fields. |
| events | |
| Any event | Any event: Default, unspecified point in time or interval event which may be explicitly defined in a template or at run-time. |
