Health informatics — Device interoperability – Part 10407: Personal health device communication — Device specialization — Blood pressure monitor

This standard establishes a normative definition of communication between personal telehealth blood pressure monitor devices and compute engines (for example, cell phones, personal computers, personal health appliances, and set-top boxes) in a way that enables plug-and-play interoperability.

This standard leverages appropriate portions of existing standards including ISO/IEEE 11073 terminology, information models, application profile standards, and transport standards. It specifies the use of specific term codes, formats, and behaviours in telehealth environments restricting optionality in base frameworks in favour of interoperability. A common core of communication functionality for personal telehealth blood pressure monitors is also defined.
