Health informatics - Personal health device communication - Part 20601: Application profile - Optimized exchange protocol (ISO/IEEE 11073-20601:2010)

Scope

ISO/IEEE 11703-20601:2010 defines a common framework for making an abstract model of personal health data available in transport-independent transfer syntax required to establish logical connections between systems and to provide presentation capabilities and services needed to perform communication tasks. The protocol is optimized to personal health usage requirements and leverages commonly used methods and tools wherever possible.
ISO/IEEE 11703-20601:2010 addresses a need for an openly defined, independent standard for converting the information profile into an interoperable transmission format so the information can be exchanged to and from personal telehealth devices and computer engines (e.g., cell phones, personal computers, personal health appliances and set top boxes).
