Full title and description

Health informatics — Personal health device communication — Part 10207: Domain information and service model for service‑oriented point‑of‑care medical device communication (ISO/IEEE 11073‑10207:2019). This part of the ISO/IEEE 11073 family defines the domain information model and a service model intended for service‑oriented (SOMDA-style) communication among point‑of‑care medical devices and medical IT systems.

Abstract

The standard specifies the definition and structuring of information exchanged in distributed systems of point‑of‑care medical devices and medical IT systems, providing a Participant Model and Communication Model derived from the IEEE 11073 Domain Information Model. It leverages the IEEE 11073 nomenclature and supports other coding systems to convey semantics of information elements. Network transport mechanisms are explicitly outside the scope.

Scope

Defines information and service modelling for service‑oriented point‑of‑care device communication: a domain information model, participant/service models and rules for expressing semantics (nomenclature and coding). It is intended for systems where device data must be exchanged, aggregated or devices controlled in a distributed environment; transport protocols are not defined by this part.

Key topics and requirements

• Domain Information Model (DIM) and Participant Model to represent devices, metrics and relationships used in point‑of‑care settings.
• Service model for service‑oriented device communication (SOMDA/SDC‑style approaches) enabling discovery, publication/subscription and request/response interactions.
• Use of IEEE/ISO 11073 nomenclature to give semantic meaning to data elements and metrics.
• Interoperability rules and constraints to reduce optionality and promote plug‑and‑play integration between devices and managers.
• Explicit exclusion of network transport definitions (the standard focuses on information and services, not lower‑layer transports).

Typical use and users

Implementers of point‑of‑care medical device software and middleware (device vendors, medical device integrators), hospital IT and clinical informatics teams, system architects building device orchestration and gateway products, medical device testing labs, and standards bodies working on device interoperability. Researchers and vendors mapping ISO/IEEE 11073 models to modern service/discovery/messaging middleware (e.g., DDS, Web Services or SDC/SOMDA implementations) also commonly refer to this part.

Related standards

ISO/IEEE 11073‑10207 is part of the broader ISO/IEEE 11073 family. Key related parts include the Domain Information Model (ISO/IEEE 11073‑10201), the Nomenclature (ISO/IEEE 11073‑10101), the personal health device base/application profile (ISO/IEEE 11073‑20601) and many device specializations (ISO/IEEE 11073‑104xx series such as insulin pump or CGM profiles). These documents are referenced or used together when implementing interoperability for point‑of‑care or personal health devices.

FAQ

Q: What is this standard?

A: ISO/IEEE 11073‑10207:2019 is an international standard that defines a domain information and service model for service‑oriented communication among point‑of‑care medical devices and related IT systems.

Q: What does it cover?

A: It covers the structure and semantics of information exchanged between devices and systems (participant model, DIM and service model), how data elements are described using nomenclature and coding systems, and rules for services in a service‑oriented device communication environment. It does not define lower‑layer network transports.

Q: Who typically uses it?

A: Device manufacturers, middleware and gateway vendors, clinical systems integrators, hospital IT architects, interoperability test labs and researchers building or validating point‑of‑care device communication solutions.

Q: Is it current or superseded?

A: The publication date is March 2019 (Edition 1). The ISO entry shows the standard was reviewed/confirmed during periodic review activity (the ISO catalogue notes review/confirmation activity). Users should check the ISO/IEEE catalogue or national bodies for the most recent confirmation or any amendments.

Q: Is it part of a series?

A: Yes — it is a part of the ISO/IEEE 11073 family of standards for medical/device communication and is intended to be used together with related parts such as 11073‑10201 (DIM), 11073‑10101 (Nomenclature), 11073‑20601 (personal health device application profile) and device specialization parts (11073‑104xx).

Q: What are the key keywords?

A: Domain Information Model, service model, point‑of‑care, personal health device, nomenclature, interoperability, SOMDA/SDC, ISO/IEEE 11073.
