Subject: [saf] Issue 015 - alternatives to Protocol

 

 
  
Proposals for
      replacement for Protocol/Prescription:

  
   
PrescriptionTemplate
       / PrescriptionInstance.  Not really class/instance relationship.

   
PrescriptionTemplate
       / Prescription (leave latter unchanged).  

   
PrescriptionClass
       / PrescriptionInstance.  Not really class/instance relationship.

   
Prescription /
       Prescription (but make distinction in the spec).

  
 

[[Paul]] Confusing?

 
  
   
Prescription /
       PrescriptionInstance.  Not really class/instance relationship.

   
Treatment /
       Prescription.  Treatment doesn’t capture diagnostics,
       optimizations??

  
 

[[Paul]] It does. Treatments routinely
include diagnostics. I treat you with Coumadin (a blood thinner and monitor
kidney function). Or I you come into an allergist’s office complaining of
allergies and treatment consists of evaluation your allergies with tests before
deciding on a treatment regimen. 

 

I suppose you could use the class of
Regimen, too, for that matter! :-)
