Purpose: This description focuses on the expressiveness and flexibility of OpenSDE: an application that supports recording of structured narrative data. Methods: OpenSDE enables data entry with (customizable) forms based on trees of medical concepts. The relevant scope for data entry can be tailored per medical domain by construction of a domain-specific tree. OpenSDE is intended for structuring narrative data to make these available for both care and research. Results: The OpenSDE application is currently in use at several departments in our academic hospital, including radiology, neurology, pediatrics, and child psychiatry. OpenSDE is available for all in open source.
