ISO/IEEE 11073 Health Informatics - standards and related ISO standards for medical devices

About

It is recommended that ISO/IEEE 11073 health informatics standards and related ISO standards for medical devices to be followed as appropriate whenever any personal healthcare/medical device is interfaced with the EMR system for the purpose of clinical data exchange, retrieval, storage, etc.

Scope

Within the context of the ISO/IEEE 11073 family of standards for device communication, this standard describes the landscape of transport-independent applications and information profiles for personal telehealth devices.

These profiles define data exchange, data representation, and terminology, for communication between personal health devices and compute engines, such as health appliances, set-top boxes, cell phones, and personal computers. This standard provides a definition of personal telehealth devices as devices used for life activity, wellness monitoring, and/or health monitoring in domestic home, communal home, and/or mobile applications as well as professional medical usage.

ISO/IEEE 11073 health informatics standards and related ISO standards for medical devices consist of the following parts, under the general title Health Informatics-Personal health device communication (text in parentheses gives a variant of the subtitle):
