IEEE 11073-20701-2018

The scope of this standard is a service-oriented medical device architecture and communication protocol specification for distributed system of Point-of-Care (PoC) medical devices and medical IT systems that need to exchange data or safely control networked PoC medical devices. It identifies the functional components, their communication relationships as well as the binding of the components and communication relationships to protocol specifications. This standard defines an architecture for service-oriented distributed PoC medical devices and medical IT systems. It describes a binding of the Participant and Communication model as defined in IEEE Std 11073-10207(TM) to Medical Devices Communication Profile for Web Services (MDPWS) as defined in IEEE Std 11073-20702(TM) for transport over Web Services.1 Moreover, a binding to the Network Time Protocol (NTP) and Differentiated Services (DiffServ) is specified for time synchronization and transport Quality of Service requirements. New IEEE Standard - Active. Within the context of the ISO/IEEE 11073 family of standards for point-of-care (PoC) medical device communication, an architecture for service-oriented distributed PoC medical devices and medical IT systems is defined. This standard defines a binding of the Participant, Discovery, and Communication Model defined in IEEE Std 11073-10207(TM) to the profile for transport over Web Services defined in IEEE Std 11073-20702(TM). Moreover, a binding to Network Time Protocol (NTP) and Differentiated Services (DiffServ) is defined for time synchronization and transport Quality of Service requirements.
