Abstract:
This paper reports from three different levels of working with archetypes in Norwegian healthcare. The paper contributes to a qualitative longitudinal interpretive study, connected to the development of a large-scale electronic patient record (EPR) system in the North Norwegian Health Authority. The focus of the paper is on how the notion of core archetypes could contribute to speeding up the process of developing national archetypes in Norway. Also, how core archetypes may increase clinicians understanding of structured EPR systems, based on different user experiences. We discuss when to start using archetypes in clinical practice. Also, whether constructing a prototype of a basis EPR system based on core archetypes, can contribute to a faster development of the new EPR system, and national archetypes in Norway.
