IEEE Health Informatics--Device Interoperability--Part 10471: Personal Health Device Communication--Device Specialization--Independent Living Activity Hub - Redline

Within the context of the ISO/IEEE 11073 family of standards for device communication, a normative definition of communication between personal telehealth independent living activity hub devices and compute engines (e.g., cell phones, personal computers, personal health appliances, set top boxes) in a manner that enables plug-and-play interoperability is established in this standard. Appropriate portions of existing standards, including ISO/IEEE 11073 terminology, information models, application profile standards, and transport standards are leveraged. The use of specific term codes, formats, and behaviors in telehealth environments restricting optionality in base frameworks in favor of interoperability are specified. A common core of communication functionality for personal telehealth independent living activity hubs is defined in this standard.
