• The lifelong clinical information of any person supported by electronic means configures his Electronic Health Record (EHR). This information is usually distributed among several independent and heterogeneous systems that may be syntactically or semantically incompatible. There are currently different standards for representing and exchanging EHR information among different systems. In advanced EHR approaches, clinical information is represented by means of archetypes. Most of these approaches use ADL to specify archetypes. In this work, Semantic Web technologies are used to specify clinical archetypes for advanced EHR architectures. The advantages of using OWL instead of ADL are described and discussed in this work.
