Health informatics--Point-of-care medical device communication - Part 20701: Service-Oriented Medical Device Exchange Architecture and Protocol Binding

Abstract

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.
