Health informatics — Point-of-care medical device communication – Part 10103: Nomenclature — Implantable device, cardiac

This standard extends the base nomenclature provided in IEEE 11073 to support terminology for implantable cardiac devices. It covers implantable devices such as pacemakers, defibrillators, devices for cardiac resynchronisation therapy, and implantable cardiac monitors. This nomenclature defines the discrete terms necessary to convey a clinically relevant summary of the information obtained during a device interrogation.

Cardiology and electrophysiology practices require a central system to manage information from all vendor devices and systems. To address this requirement, the Implantable Device, Cardiac (IDC) Nomenclature defines a standard-based terminology for device data. The nomenclature facilitates the transfer of data from vendor proprietary systems to the clinic electronic health record system or device clinic management system.
