This paper discusses the notion of medical archetype and the manner how the archetype elements are documented in hospital patient records. This is done by interpreting the archetypes as information extraction templates in automatic text analysis of clinical narratives. The extensive extraction experiments performed over thousands of anonymous discharge letters show the actual instantiation of the required and expected items in the narrative clinical documentation; in fact much tacit medical knowledge is implicitly presented in the real clinical texts. This fact suggests that the archetype approach to defaults and inheritance might need certain development.
