Title
New use cases for remote control and configuration of interoperable medical devices.
Abstract
The newest branch of the ISO/IEEE 11073 (X73) standard for Personal Health Devices (X73PHD), allow the development of interoperable personal health ecosystems. At the moment of this writing, more than 11 specializations have been successfully published by the Personal Health Device (PHD) Working Group (PHD WG). Nevertheless, some recent specializations at draft stage show the need for a procedure to control configuration parameters. As a solution, some ad-hoc methods have been elaborated to deal with it, but, the aim of the PHD WG is to standardize a general procedure, valid for longer term. Then it is needed to identify use cases requiring remote configuration services. This work identifies and studies new use cases that employ remote configuration services. The resulting use cases, discussed within the PHD WG to get the maximum consensus, are within the scope of the Basic Electrocardiograph (X73-10406), the Sleep Apnea Breathing Therapy Equipment (X73-10424), and the Medication Monitor (X73-10472) specializations. In addition, a classification of the findings is proposed for each use case. These findings could be the basis for the new remote configuration extension.
