Abstract
A meaningful electronic health record (EHR) improves the ability for healthcare professionals to enact evidence-based knowledge management and aids decision making in health care. EHRs can have a positive impact in quality of care, patient safety, and efficiencies. OpenObsCare project aims to investigate how the openEHR standard can be implemented in obstetrics medical records. This project studies the dynamic generation of clinical record modules, the development of forms based in clinical concepts (openEHR templates and archetypes) defined by the international openEHR community, and the way that patient data can be stored, optimizing its future reuse in, for example, clinical management and research. This paper presents the methodology for exporting data from an openEHR repository to standard tabular formats, enabling further form reports and data analysis using other software. The result will be a tool that can connect to any openEHR repository-based web service and export data to standard formats, therefore enabling data analysis to extract knowledge. Connection with the EHR server is made by means of web service consumption. Some difficulties arise such as the handling of the different web service protocols, different method names invoked to perform the same task varying from web service to web service and their validation by the application.
