Health informatics - Personal health device communication - Part 10407: Device specialization - Blood pressure monitor

ISO/IEEE 11073-10407:2010 establishes a normative definition of communication between personal telehealth blood pressure monitor devices and computer engines (e.g., cell phones, personal computers, personal health appliances, and set top boxes) in a manner that enables plug-and-play interoperability. It 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. This International Standard defines a common core of communication functionality for personal telehealth blood pressure monitors. ISO/IEEE 11073-10407:2010 addresses a need for an openly defined, independent standard for controlling information exchange to and from personal health devices and computer engines.

Informatique de santé — Communication entre dispositifs de santé personnels — Partie 10407: Spécialisation des dispositifs — Moniteur de pression sanguine

L'ISO/IEEE 11073-10407:2010 établit une définition normative de la communication entre des dispositifs de moniteurs de pression sanguine personnels de télésanté et des moteurs informatiques (par exemple des téléphones cellulaires, des ordinateurs personnels, des équipements personnels de santé et des boîtiers décodeurs) d'une manière qui permet une interopérabilité du type prêt à l'emploi. Elle s'appuie sur les parties appropriées de normes existantes, y compris la terminologie, des modèles d'informations, des normes de profils d'applications et des normes de transport de l'ISO/IEEE 11073. Elle spécifie l'utilisation de codes, de formats et de comportements en termes spécifiques dans les environnements de télésanté, en limitant les choix à des cadres de travail de base en faveur de l'interopérabilité. Elle définit un noyau commun de fonctionnalités de communication pour les moniteurs de pression sanguine personnels de télésanté. L'ISO/IEEE 11073-10407:2010 répond au besoin d'une norme indépendante définie de manière ouverte portant sur la commande de l'échange d'informations entre des dispositifs personnels de santé et des moteurs informatiques.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national
standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is
normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a
subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on
that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with
ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
IEEE Standards documents are developed within the IEEE Societies and the Standards
Coordinating Committees of the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Standards Board. The
IEEE develops its standards through a consensus development process, approved by the
American National Standards Institute, which brings together volunteers representing varied
viewpoints and interests to achieve the final product. Volunteers are not necessarily members of
the Institute and serve without compensation. While the IEEE administers the process and
establishes rules to promote fairness in the consensus development process, the IEEE does not
independently evaluate, test, or verify the accuracy of any of the information contained in its
standards.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International
Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies
casting a vote.
Attention is called to the possibility that implementation of this standard may require the use of
subject matter covered by patent rights. By publication of this standard, no position is taken with
respect to the existence or validity of any patent rights in connection therewith. ISO/IEEE is not
responsible for identifying essential patents or patent claims for which a license may be required,
for conducting inquiries into the legal validity or scope of patents or patent claims or determining
whether any licensing terms or conditions provided in connection with submission of a Letter of
Assurance or a Patent Statement and Licensing Declaration Form, if any, or in any licensing
agreements are reasonable or non-discriminatory. Users of this standard are expressly advised that
determination of the validity of any patent rights, and the risk of infringement of such rights, is
entirely their own responsibility. Further information may be obtained from ISO or the IEEE
Standards Association.
ISO/IEEE 11073-10407 was prepared by the 11073 Committee of the Engineering in Medicine
and Biology Society of the IEEE (as IEEE Std 11073-10407-2008). It was adopted by Technical
Committee ISO/TC 215, Health informatics, in parallel with its approval by the ISO member
bodies, under the “fast-track procedure” defined in the Partner Standards Development
Organization cooperation agreement between ISO and IEEE. Both parties are responsible for the

1. Overview
1.1 Scope
Within the context of the ISO/IEEE 11073 family of standards for device communication, this standard
establishes a normative definition of communication between personal telehealth blood pressure monitor
devices and compute engines (e.g., cell phones, personal computers, personal health appliances, and set top
boxes) in a manner that enables plug-and-play interoperability. It 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 behaviors in telehealth
environments restricting optionality in base frameworks in favor of interoperability. This standard defines a
common core of communication functionality for personal telehealth blood pressure monitors.
1.2 Purpose
This standard addresses a need for an openly defined, independent standard for controlling information
exchange to and from personal health devices and compute engines (e.g., cell phones, personal computers,
personal health appliances, and set top boxes). Interoperability is the key to growing the potential market
for these devices and to enabling people to be better informed participants in the management of their
health.

4. Introduction to ISO/IEEE 11073 personal health devices
4.1 General
This standard and the remainder of the series of ISO/IEEE 11073 personal health device (PHD) standards
fit in the larger context of the ISO/IEEE 11073 series of standards. The full suite of standards enables
agents to interconnect and interoperate with managers and with computerized health-care information
systems. See IEEE Std 11073-20601 for a description of the guiding principles for this series of
ISO/IEEE 11073 Personal Health Device standards.
© IEEE 2009 – All rights reserved

ISO/IEEE FDIS 11073-10407:2009(E)

IEEE Std 11073-20601 supports the modeling and implementation of an extensive set of personal health
devices. This standard defines aspects of the blood pressure monitor device. It describes all aspects
necessary to implement the application layer services and data exchange protocol between an ISO/IEEE
11073 PHD blood pressure monitor agent and a manager. This standard defines a subset of the objects and
functionality contained in IEEE Std 11073-20601 and extends and adds definitions where appropriate. All
new definitions are given in Annex B in Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) [B7]. Nomenclature codes
referenced in this standard, which are not defined in IEEE Std 11073-20601, are normatively defined in
Annex C.
4.2 Introduction to IEEE 11073-20601 modeling constructs
4.2.1 General
The ISO/IEEE 11073 series of standards, and in particular the IEEE Std 11073-20601, is based on an
object-oriented systems management paradigm. The overall system model is divided into three principal
components: the domain information model (DIM), the service model, and the communication model. See
IEEE Std 11073-20601 for a detailed description of the modeling constructs.
4.2.2 Domain information model
The DIM is a hierarchical model that describes an agent as a set of objects. These objects and their
attributes represent the elements that control behavior and report on the status of the agent and data that an
agent can communicate to a manager. Communication between the agent and the manager is defined by the
application protocol in IEEE Std 11073-20601.
4.2.3 Service model
The service model defines the conceptual mechanisms for the data exchange services. Such services are
mapped to messages that are exchanged between the agent and the manager. Protocol messages within the
ISO/IEEE 11073 series of standards are defined in ASN.1. The messages defined in IEEE Std 11073-20601
can coexist with messages defined in other standard application profiles defined in the ISO/IEEE 11073
series of standards.
4.2.4 Communication model
In general, the communication model supports the topology of one or more agents communicating over
logical point-to-point connections to a single manager. For each logical point-to-point connection, the
dynamic system behavior is defined by a connection state machine as specified in IEEE Std 11073-20601.
4.2.5 Implementing the models
An agent implementing this standard shall implement all mandatory elements of the information, service,
and communication models as well as all conditional elements where the condition is met. The agent should
implement the recommended elements, and it may implement any combination of the optional elements. A
manager implementing this standard shall utilize at least one of the mandatory, conditional, recommended,
or optional elements. In this context, “utilize” means use the element as part of the primary function of the
manager device. For example, a manager whose primary function is to display data would need to display a
piece of data in the element in order to utilize it.

5. Blood pressure monitor device concepts and modalities
5.1 General
This clause presents the general concepts of blood pressure monitor devices. In the context of personal
health devices in this family of standards, a blood pressure monitor is a device that measures blood pressure
[i.e., systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial pressure (MAP)] and, optionally, pulse noninvasively. Blood
pressure monitor devices considered in this standard typically inflate a cuff to occlude an artery and then to
measure the reaction of the artery while the pressure is released with the results being converted into
systolic, diastolic, and MAP values. Optionally, pulse rate may be determined at the same time.

Blood pressure monitor devices may use a variety of techniques for measuring blood pressure and pulse
rate. One typical method is the oscillometric method where oscillations in cuff pressure are analyzed to
obtain blood pressure values. Another technique is the automated auscultatory method where the device
uses a microphone to detect Korotkoff sounds during cuff deflation. Auscultatory devices measure the
systolic and diastolic values and estimates the MAP.

In home monitors, the oscillometric method is typically used, allowing the measurement to be done
electronically. On the oscillometric method, small pressure changes (oscillations) occur in the cuff as a
result of blood pressure pulses during the inflation or deflation of the cuff and are detected. These
oscillations, which first increase and then decrease, are stored together with the corresponding cuff pressure
values in the automated sphygmomanometer. With these stored values, the systolic, diastolic, and mean
blood pressure values can be mathematically derived using an appropriate algorithm.

Blood pressure is historically most frequently measured using the units of millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
Kilopascals (kPa) may also be used. This standard supports both mmHg and kPa.
5.2 Systolic and diastolic pressure
The systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements indicate the highest and lowest blood pressures
during the cardiac cycle. Normally, a single measurement is insufficient to provide the complete
information regarding the state of the heart and vascular system, and so both systolic and diastolic blood
pressure measurements are provided. According to this standard, both systolic and diastolic blood pressures
are always reported together.
5.3 Mean arterial pressure
Mean arterial pressure is reported in the same units as systolic and diastolic blood pressure. It is reported at
the same time as systolic and diastolic blood pressure. It is required for this standard.
5.4 Pulse rate
Pulse rate is measured in beats per minute (BPM). Reporting a pulse rate is supported by this standard, but
it is optional in some configurations.

6. Blood pressure monitor domain information model
6.1 Overview
This clause describes the domain information model of the blood pressure monitor.
6.2 Class extensions
In this standard, no class extensions are defined with respect to IEEE Std 11073-20601.
6.3 Object instance diagram
The object instance diagram of the blood pressure monitor domain information model, which is defined for
the purposes of this standard, is shown in Figure 1.

The objects of the DIM, as shown in Figure 1, are described in 6.4 to 6.12. This includes the medical device
system (MDS) object (see 6.5), the numeric objects (see 6.6), the real-time sample array (RT-SA) objects
(see 1.1), the enumeration objects (see 1.1), the PM-store objects (see 6.9), and the scanner objects (see
6.10). See 6.11 for rules for extending the blood pressure monitor information model beyond elements as
described in this standard. Each clause that describes an object of the blood pressure monitor contains the
following information:
⎯ The nomenclature code used to identify the class of the object. One example of where this code
is used is the configuration event, where the object class is reported for each object. This allows
the manager to determine whether the class of the object being specified is a numeric, real-time
sample array, enumeration, scanner, or PM-store class.
⎯ The attributes of the object. Each object has attributes that represent and convey information on
the physical device and its data sources. Each object has a Handle attribute that identifies the
object instance within an agent. Attribute values are accessed and modified using methods such
as GET and SET. Attribute types are defined using an ASN.1. The ASN.1 definitions for new
attribute types specific to this standard are in Annex B, and the ASN.1 definitions for existing
attribute types referenced in this standard are in IEEE Std 11073-20601.
⎯ The methods available on the object.
⎯ The potential events generated by the object. Data are sent to the manager using events.
⎯ The available services such as getting or setting attributes.

The attributes for each class are defined in tables that specify the name of the attribute, its value, and its
qualifier. The qualifiers mean M — Attribute is Mandatory, C — Attribute is Conditional and depends on
the condition stated in the Remark or Value column (if IEEE Std 11073-20601 is referenced, then it
contains the conditions), R — Attribute is Recommended, NR — Attribute is Not Recommended, and O —
Attribute is Optional. Mandatory attributes shall be implemented by an agent. Conditional attributes shall
be implemented if the condition applies and may be implemented otherwise. Recommended attributes
should be implemented by the agent. Not recommended attributes should not be implemented by the agent.
Optional attributes may be implemented on an agent.
The attributes can be either static, meaning that they shall remain unchanged after the configuration is
agreed upon, or dynamic, meaning that the attribute may change at some point after configuration.

6.4 Types of configuration
6.4.1 General
As specified in IEEE Std 11073-20601, there are two styles of configuration available. Subclauses 6.4.2
and 6.4.3 briefly introduce standard and extended configurations.
6.4.2 Standard configuration
Standard configurations are defined in the IEEE 11073-104zz specializations (such as this standard) and are
assigned a well-known identifier (Dev-Configuration-Id). The usage of a standard configuration is
negotiated at association time between the agent and the manager. If the manager acknowledges that it
recognizes and wants to operate using the configuration, then the agent can begin sending measurements
immediately. If the manager does not recognize the configuration, the agent provides the configuration
prior to transmitting measurement information.
6.4.3 Extended configuration
In extended configurations, the agent’s configuration is not predefined in a standard. The agent determines
which objects, attributes, and values that it wants to use in a configuration and assigns a configuration
identifier. When the agent associates with a manager, it negotiates an acceptable configuration. Typically,
the manager does not recognize the agent’s configuration on the first connection, so the manager responds
that the agent needs to send the configuration information as a configuration event report. If, however, the
manager already understands the configuration, either because it was preloaded in some way or the agent
had previously associated with the manager, then the manager responds that the configuration is known and
no further configuration information needs to be sent.

6.5.1 MDS object attributes
Table 1 summarizes the attributes of the blood pressure monitor MDS object. The nomenclature code to
identify the MDS class is MDC_MOC_VMS_MDS_SIMP.

In the response to a Get MDS Object command, only implemented attributes and their corresponding
values are returned.
See IEEE Std 11073-20601 for descriptive explanations of the individual attributes as well as for
information on attribute ID and attribute type.

The Dev-Configuration-Id attribute holds a locally unique 16-bit identifier that identifies the device
configuration. For a blood pressure monitor agent with extended configuration, this identifier is chosen in
the range of extended-config-start to extended-config-end (see IEEE Std 11073-20601) as shown in
Table 1.
The agent sends the Dev-Configuration-Id during the Associating state (see 8.3) to identify its configuration
for the duration of the association. If the manager already holds the configuration information relating to
the Dev-Configuration-Id, it recognizes the Dev-Configuration-Id. Then the Configuring state (see 8.4) is
skipped, and the agent and manager then enter the Operating state. If the manager does not recognize the
Dev-Configuration-Id, the agent and manager enter the Configuring state.

If an agent implements multiple IEEE 11073-104zz specializations, System-Type-Spec-List is a list of
type/version pairs, each referencing the respective device specialization and version of that specialization.
6.5.2 MDS object methods
Table 2 defines the methods (actions) of the MDS object. These methods are invoked using the Action
service. In Table 2, the Subservice type name column defines the name of the method; the Mode column
defines whether the method is invoked as an unconfirmed action (i.e., roiv-cmip-action from
IEEE Std 11073-20601) or a confirmed action (i.e., roiv-cmip-confirmed-action); the Subservice type
(action-type) column defines the nomenclature code to use in the action-type field of an action request and
response (see IEEE Std 11073-20601); the Parameters (action-info-args) column defines the associated
ASN.1 data structure (see IEEE Std 11073-20601 for ASN.1 definitions) to use in the action message for
the action-info-args field of the request; and the Results (action-info-args) column defines the structure to
use in the action-info-args of the response.

Set-Time
This method allows the manager to set a real-time clock in the agent with the absolute time. The agent
indicates whether the Set-Time command is valid using the mds-time-capab-set-clock bit in the Mds-Time-
Info attribute (see IEEE Std 11073-20601). Agents with an internal real-time clock (RTC) should indicate
this capability by setting the mds-time-capab-real-time-clock bit in the Mds-Time-Info attribute.

If the agent supports the Absolute-Time-Stamp attribute, this method should be implemented.
6.5.3 MDS object events
Agents following only this device specialization and no others shall send event reports (see 6.5.3) using
agent-initiated measurement data transmission. During the association procedure (see 8.3), data-req-mode-
capab shall be set to the appropriate value for the event report style. As a result, the manager shall assume
the blood pressure monitor agent does not support any of the MDS-Data-Request features (see
IEEE Std 11073-20601 for additional information). The data-req-init-manager-count shall be set to zero,
and the data-req-init-agent-count shall be set to 1.

Agents following this device specialization as well as others shall send event reports in the appropriate
fashion. During the association procedure (see 8.3), data-req-mode-capab shall be set to the appropriate
value for the event report style.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national
standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is
normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a
subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on
that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with
ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
IEEE Standards documents are developed within the IEEE Societies and the Standards
Coordinating Committees of the IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) Standards Board. The
IEEE develops its standards through a consensus development process, approved by the
American National Standards Institute, which brings together volunteers representing varied
viewpoints and interests to achieve the final product. Volunteers are not necessarily members of
the Institute and serve without compensation. While the IEEE administers the process and
establishes rules to promote fairness in the consensus development process, the IEEE does not
independently evaluate, test, or verify the accuracy of any of the information contained in its
standards.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International
Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies
casting a vote.
Attention is called to the possibility that implementation of this standard may require the use of
subject matter covered by patent rights. By publication of this standard, no position is taken with
respect to the existence or validity of any patent rights in connection therewith. ISO/IEEE is not
responsible for identifying essential patents or patent claims for which a license may be required,
for conducting inquiries into the legal validity or scope of patents or patent claims or determining
whether any licensing terms or conditions provided in connection with submission of a Letter of
Assurance or a Patent Statement and Licensing Declaration Form, if any, or in any licensing
agreements are reasonable or non-discriminatory. Users of this standard are expressly advised that
determination of the validity of any patent rights, and the risk of infringement of such rights, is
entirely their own responsibility. Further information may be obtained from ISO or the IEEE
Standards Association.
ISO/IEEE 11073-10407 was prepared by the 11073 Committee of the Engineering in Medicine
and Biology Society of the IEEE (as IEEE Std 11073-10407-2008). It was adopted by Technical
Committee ISO/TC 215, Health informatics, in parallel with its approval by the ISO member
bodies, under the “fast-track procedure” defined in the Partner Standards Development
Organization cooperation agreement between ISO and IEEE. Both parties are responsible for the

1. Overview
1.1 Scope
Within the context of the ISO/IEEE 11073 family of standards for device communication, this standard
establishes a normative definition of communication between personal telehealth blood pressure monitor
devices and compute engines (e.g., cell phones, personal computers, personal health appliances, and set top
boxes) in a manner that enables plug-and-play interoperability. It 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 behaviors in telehealth
environments restricting optionality in base frameworks in favor of interoperability. This standard defines a
common core of communication functionality for personal telehealth blood pressure monitors.
1.2 Purpose
This standard addresses a need for an openly defined, independent standard for controlling information
exchange to and from personal health devices and compute engines (e.g., cell phones, personal computers,
personal health appliances, and set top boxes). Interoperability is the key to growing the potential market
for these devices and to enabling people to be better informed participants in the management of their
health.
1.3 Context

3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of this standard, the following terms and definitions apply. The Authoritative Dictionary of
IEEE Standards Terms [B2] should be referenced for terms not defined in this clause.
3.1.1 agent: A node that collects and transmits personal health data to an associated manager.
3.1.2 blood pressure: The cyclic pressure (i.e., amount of force applied over a given area divided by the
size of this area) exerted by blood against the walls of blood vessels. Noninvasive blood pressure
measurement is typically performed at the brachial artery (arm) or radial artery (wrist). There are usually
two numbers reported for blood pressure, and with the home monitors, a third number is typically available.
The first, and higher, number is produced by the contraction of the heart (See: systolic pressure). The
second, lower number is produced by relaxation of the heart (See: diastolic pressure). The third number is
the mean arterial pressure.
3.1.3 class: In object-oriented modeling, a class describes the attributes, methods, and events that objects
instantiated from the class utilize.
3.1.4 compute engine: See: manager.
3.1.5 device: A term used to refer to a physical apparatus implementing either an agent or a manager role.
3.1.6 diastolic pressure: This is minimum pressure achieved during the cardiac cycle. It is typically the
second and the lower of the readings given as the blood pressure.

The numbers in brackets correspond to those of the bibliography in Annex A.

4. Introduction to ISO/IEEE 11073 personal health devices
4.1 General
This standard and the remainder of the series of ISO/IEEE 11073 personal health device (PHD) standards
fit in the larger context of the ISO/IEEE 11073 series of standards. The full suite of standards enables
agents to interconnect and interoperate with managers and with computerized health-care information
systems. See IEEE Std 11073-20601 for a description of the guiding principles for this series of
ISO/IEEE 11073 Personal Health Device standards.
© IEEE 2010 – All rights reserved

IEEE Std 11073-20601 supports the modeling and implementation of an extensive set of personal health
devices. This standard defines aspects of the blood pressure monitor device. It describes all aspects
necessary to implement the application layer services and data exchange protocol between an ISO/IEEE
11073 PHD blood pressure monitor agent and a manager. This standard defines a subset of the objects and
functionality contained in IEEE Std 11073-20601 and extends and adds definitions where appropriate. All
new definitions are given in Annex B in Abstract Syntax Notation One (ASN.1) [B7]. Nomenclature codes
referenced in this standard, which are not defined in IEEE Std 11073-20601, are normatively defined in
Annex C.
4.2 Introduction to IEEE 11073-20601 modeling constructs
4.2.1 General
The ISO/IEEE 11073 series of standards, and in particular the IEEE Std 11073-20601, is based on an
object-oriented systems management paradigm. The overall system model is divided into three principal
components: the domain information model (DIM), the service model, and the communication model. See
IEEE Std 11073-20601 for a detailed description of the modeling constructs.
4.2.2 Domain information model
The DIM is a hierarchical model that describes an agent as a set of objects. These objects and their
attributes represent the elements that control behavior and report on the status of the agent and data that an
agent can communicate to a manager. Communication between the agent and the manager is defined by the
application protocol in IEEE Std 11073-20601.
4.2.3 Service model
The service model defines the conceptual mechanisms for the data exchange services. Such services are
mapped to messages that are exchanged between the agent and the manager. Protocol messages within the
ISO/IEEE 11073 series of standards are defined in ASN.1. The messages defined in IEEE Std 11073-20601
can coexist with messages defined in other standard application profiles defined in the ISO/IEEE 11073
series of standards.
4.2.4 Communication model
In general, the communication model supports the topology of one or more agents communicating over
logical point-to-point connections to a single manager. For each logical point-to-point connection, the
dynamic system behavior is defined by a connection state machine as specified in IEEE Std 11073-20601.
4.2.5 Implementing the models
An agent implementing this standard shall implement all mandatory elements of the information, service,
and communication models as well as all conditional elements where the condition is met. The agent should
implement the recommended elements, and it may implement any combination of the optional elements. A
manager implementing this standard shall utilize at least one of the mandatory, conditional, recommended,
or optional elements. In this context, “utilize” means use the element as part of the primary function of the
manager device. For example, a manager whose primary function is to display data would need to display a
piece of data in the element in order to utilize it.

5. Blood pressure monitor device concepts and modalities
5.1 General
This clause presents the general concepts of blood pressure monitor devices. In the context of personal
health devices in this family of standards, a blood pressure monitor is a device that measures blood pressure
[i.e., systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial pressure (MAP)] and, optionally, pulse noninvasively. Blood
pressure monitor devices considered in this standard typically inflate a cuff to occlude an artery and then to
measure the reaction of the artery while the pressure is released with the results being converted into
systolic, diastolic, and MAP values. Optionally, pulse rate may be determined at the same time.

Blood pressure monitor devices may use a variety of techniques for measuring blood pressure and pulse
rate. One typical method is the oscillometric method where oscillations in cuff pressure are analyzed to
obtain blood pressure values. Another technique is the automated auscultatory method where the device
uses a microphone to detect Korotkoff sounds during cuff deflation. Auscultatory devices measure the
systolic and diastolic values and estimates the MAP.

In home monitors, the oscillometric method is typically used, allowing the measurement to be done
electronically. On the oscillometric method, small pressure changes (oscillations) occur in the cuff as a
result of blood pressure pulses during the inflation or deflation of the cuff and are detected. These
oscillations, which first increase and then decrease, are stored together with the corresponding cuff pressure
values in the automated sphygmomanometer. With these stored values, the systolic, diastolic, and mean
blood pressure values can be mathematically derived using an appropriate algorithm.

Blood pressure is historically most frequently measured using the units of millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
Kilopascals (kPa) may also be used. This standard supports both mmHg and kPa.
5.2 Systolic and diastolic pressure
The systolic and diastolic blood pressure measurements indicate the highest and lowest blood pressures
during the cardiac cycle. Normally, a single measurement is insufficient to provide the complete
information regarding the state of the heart and vascular system, and so both systolic and diastolic blood
pressure measurements are provided. According to this standard, both systolic and diastolic blood pressures
are always reported together.
5.3 Mean arterial pressure
Mean arterial pressure is reported in the same units as systolic and diastolic blood pressure. It is reported at
the same time as systolic and diastolic blood pressure. It is required for this standard.
5.4 Pulse rate
Pulse rate is measured in beats per minute (BPM). Reporting a pulse rate is supported by this standard, but
it is optional in some configurations.

6. Blood pressure monitor domain information model
6.1 Overview
This clause describes the domain information model of the blood pressure monitor.
6.2 Class extensions
In this standard, no class extensions are defined with respect to IEEE Std 11073-20601.
6.3 Object instance diagram
The object instance diagram of the blood pressure monitor domain information model, which is defined for
the purposes of this standard, is shown in Figure 1.

The objects of the DIM, as shown in Figure 1, are described in 6.4 to 6.12. This includes the medical device
system (MDS) object (see 6.5), the numeric objects (see 6.6), the real-time sample array (RT-SA) objects
(see 1.1), the enumeration objects (see 1.1), the PM-store objects (see 6.9), and the scanner objects (see
6.10). See 6.11 for rules for extending the blood pressure monitor information model beyond elements as
described in this standard. Each clause that describes an object of the blood pressure monitor contains the
following information:
⎯ The nomenclature code used to identify the class of the object. One example of where this code
is used is the configuration event, where the object class is reported for each object. This allows
the manager to determine whether the class of the object being specified is a numeric, real-time
sample array, enumeration, scanner, or PM-store class.
⎯ The attributes of the object. Each object has attributes that represent and convey information on
the physical device and its data sources. Each object has a Handle attribute that identifies the
object instance within an agent. Attribute values are accessed and modified using methods such
as GET and SET. Attribute types are defined using an ASN.1. The ASN.1 definitions for new
attribute types specific to this standard are in Annex B, and the ASN.1 definitions for existing
attribute types referenced in this standard are in IEEE Std 11073-20601.
⎯ The methods available on the object.
⎯ The potential events generated by the object. Data are sent to the manager using events.
⎯ The available services such as getting or setting attributes.

The attributes for each class are defined in tables that specify the name of the attribute, its value, and its
qualifier. The qualifiers mean M — Attribute is Mandatory, C — Attribute is Conditional and depends on
the condition stated in the Remark or Value column (if IEEE Std 11073-20601 is referenced, then it
contains the conditions), R — Attribute is Recommended, NR — Attribute is Not Recommended, and O —
Attribute is Optional. Mandatory attributes shall be implemented by an agent. Conditional attributes shall
be implemented if the condition applies and may be implemented otherwise. Recommended attributes
should be implemented by the agent. Not recommended attributes should not be implemented by the agent.
Optional attributes may be implemented on an agent.
The attributes can be either static, meaning that they shall remain unchanged after the configuration is
agreed upon, or dynamic, meaning that the attribute may change at some point after configuration.

6.4 Types of configuration
6.4.1 General
As specified in IEEE Std 11073-20601, there are two styles of configuration available. Subclauses 6.4.2
and 6.4.3 briefly introduce standard and extended configurations.
6.4.2 Standard configuration
Standard configurations are defined in the IEEE 11073-104zz specializations (such as this standard) and are
assigned a well-known identifier (Dev-Configuration-Id). The usage of a standard configuration is
negotiated at association time between the agent and the manager. If the manager acknowledges that it
recognizes and wants to operate using the configuration, then the agent can begin sending measurements
immediately. If the manager does not recognize the configuration, the agent provides the configuration
prior to transmitting measurement information.
6.4.3 Extended configuration
In extended configurations, the agent’s configuration is not predefined in a standard. The agent determines
which objects, attributes, and values that it wants to use in a configuration and assigns a configuration
identifier. When the agent associates with a manager, it negotiates an acceptable configuration. Typically,
the manager does not recognize the agent’s configuration on the first connection, so the manager responds
that the agent needs to send the configuration information as a configuration event report. If, however, the
manager already understands the configuration, either because it was preloaded in some way or the agent
had previously associated with the manager, then the manager responds that the configuration is known and
no further configuration information needs to be sent.
6.5 Medical device system object
6.5.1 MDS object attributes
Table 1 summarizes the attributes of the blood pressure monitor MDS object. The nomenclature code to
identify the MDS class is MDC_MOC_VMS_MDS_SIMP.

NOTE—See IEEE Std 11073-20601 for information on whether an attribute is static or dynamic.

In the response to a Get MDS Object command, only implemented attributes and their corresponding
values are returned.
See IEEE Std 11073-20601 for descriptive explanations of the individual attributes as well as for
information on attribute ID and attribute type.

The Dev-Configuration-Id attribute holds a locally unique 16-bit identifier that identifies the device
configuration. For a blood pressure monitor agent with extended configuration, this identifier is chosen in
the range of extended-config-start to extended-config-end (see IEEE Std 11073-20601) as shown in
Table 1.
The agent sends the Dev-Configuration-Id during the Associating state (see 8.3) to identify its configuration
for the duration of the association. If the manager already holds the configuration information relating to
the Dev-Configuration-Id, it recognizes the Dev-Configuration-Id. Then the Configuring state (see 8.4) is
skipped, and the agent and manager then enter the Operating state. If the manager does not recognize the
Dev-Configuration-Id, the agent and manager enter the Configuring state.

If an agent implements multiple IEEE 11073-104zz specializations, System-Type-Spec-List is a list of
type/version pairs, each referencing the respective device specialization and version of that specialization.
6.5.2 MDS object methods
Table 2 defines the methods (actions) of the MDS object. These methods are invoked using the Action
service. In Table 2, the Subservice type name column defines the name of the method; the Mode column
defines whether the method is invoked as an unconfirmed action (i.e., roiv-cmip-action from
IEEE Std 11073-20601) or a confirmed action (i.e., roiv-cmip-confirmed-action); the Subservice type
(action-type) column defines the nomenclature code to use in the action-type field of an action request and
response (see IEEE Std 11073-20601); the Parameters (action-info-args) column defines the associated
ASN.1 data structure (see IEEE Std 11073-20601 for ASN.1 definitions) to use in the action message for
the action-info-args field of the request; and the Results (action-info-args) column defines the structure to
use in the action-info-args of the response.

Set-Time
This method allows the manager to set a real-time clock in the agent with the absolute time. The agent
indicates whether the Set-Time command is valid using the mds-time-capab-set-clock bit in the Mds-Time-
Info attribute (see IEEE Std 11073-20601). Agents with an internal real-time clock (RTC) should indicate
this capability by setting the mds-time-capab-real-time-clock bit in the Mds-Time-Info attribute.

If the agent supports the Absolute-Time-Stamp attribute, this method should be implemented.
6.5.3 MDS object events
Agents following only this device specialization and no others shall send event reports (see 6.5.3) using
agent-initiated measurement data transmission. During the association procedure (see 8.3), data-req-mode-
capab shall be set to the appropriate value for the event report style. As a result, the manager shall assume
the blood pressure monitor agent does not support any of the MDS-Data-Request features (see
IEEE Std 11073-20601 for additional information). The data-req-init-manager-count shall be set to zero,
and the data-req-init-agent-count shall be set to 1.

Agents following this device specialization as well as others shall send event reports in the appropriate
fashion. During the association procedure (see 8.3), data-req-mode-capab shall be set to the appropriate
value for the event report style.

Table 3 defines the events that can be sent by the blood pressure monitor MDS object.

⎯ MDS-Configuration-Event:
This event is sent by the blood pressure monitor agent during the configuring procedure if the
manager does not already know the blood pressure monitor agent’s configuration from past
associations or because the manager has not been implemented to recognize the configuration
according to the blood pressure monitor device specialization. The event provides static
information about the supported measurement capabilities of the blood pressure monitor agent.
⎯ MDS-Dynamic-Data-Update-Var:
This event provides dynamic measurement data from the blood pressure monitor agent for the
diastolic, systolic, pulse, and optionally, the MAP numeric object(s). These data are reported
using a generic attribute list variable format. The event is sent as an unsolicited message by the
agent (i.e., an agent-initiated measurement data transmission). See 8.5.3 for more information on
unsolicited event reporting.
⎯ MDS-Dynamic-Data-Update-Fixed:
This event provides dynamic measurement data from the blood pressure monitor agent for the
diastolic, systolic, pulse, and optionally, the MAP numeric object(s). These data are reported in
the fixed format defined by the Attribute-Value-Map attribute of the object(s). The event is sent
as an unsolicited message by the agent (i.e., an agent-initiated measurement data transmission).
See 8.5.3 for more information on unsolicited event reporting.
⎯ MDS-Dynamic-Data-Update-MP-Var:
This is the same as MDS-Dynamic-Data-Update-Var but allows inclusion of data from multiple
people.
⎯ MDS-Dynamic-Data-Update-MP-Fixed:
This is the same as MDS-Dynamic-Data-Update-Fixed but allows inclusion of data from
multiple people.
NOTE—IEEE Std 11073-20601 requires that managers support all of the MDS object events listed above.
6.5.4 Other MDS services
6.5.4.1 GET service
A blood pressure monitor agent shall support the GET service, which is provided by the MDS object to
retrieve the values of all implemented MDS object attributes. The GET service can be invoked as soon as
the blood pressure monitor agent receives the Association Res

Avant-propos
L'ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale d'organismes
nationaux de normalisation (comités membres de l'ISO). L'élaboration des normes internationales
est en général confiée aux comités techniques de l'ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une
étude a le droit de faire partie du comité technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations
internationales, gouvernementales et non gouvernementales, en liaison avec l'ISO participent
également aux travaux. L'ISO collabore étroitement avec la Commission électrotechnique
internationale (CEI) en ce qui concerne la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les documents normatifs de l'IEEE sont développés au sein des sociétés de l'IEEE et des Comités
de Coordination des normes du Conseil des normes de l'Association des normes IEEE (IEEE-SA).
L'IEEE développe ses normes par le biais d'un processus de développement de consensus
approuvé par l'American National Standard Institute, qui rassemble des volontaires représentant
divers points de vue et divers intérêts pour parvenir au produit final. Les volontaires ne sont pas
nécessairement des membres de l'Institut et aucune compensation ne leur est attribuée. Bien que
l'IEEE administre le processus et établisse des règles pour favoriser l'équité au cours du processus
de développement du consensus, l'IEEE n'évalue pas, ne teste pas ou ne vérifie pas de manière
indépendante l'exactitude des informations contenues dans ses normes.
La tâche principale des comités techniques est d'élaborer les normes internationales. Les projets de
normes internationales adoptés par les comités techniques sont soumis aux comités membres pour
vote. Leur publication comme normes internationales requiert l'approbation de 75 % au moins des
comités membres votants.
L'attention est appelée sur le fait que certains des éléments du présent document peuvent faire
l'objet de droits de propriété intellectuelle ou de droits analogues. Du fait de la publication de la
présente norme, aucune position n'est adoptée en ce qui concerne l'existence ou la validité de droit
quelconque de brevet en rapport avec celle-ci. Il n'incombe pas à l'ISO/IEEE d'identifier des brevets
essentiels ou des revendications de brevet pour lesquels une licence peut être requise, ni de
conduire des enquêtes en ce qui concerne la validité légale ou la portée des brevets ou des
revendications de brevet ou de déterminer si des termes ou conditions d'attribution de licence
fournis en rapport avec la soumission d'une lettre d'assurance ou d'une déclaration de brevet et du
formulaire de déclaration d'attribution de licence, s'il y en a, ou dans des accords d'attribution de
licence quelconques sont raisonnables ou non discriminatoires. Les utilisateurs de la présente
norme sont expressément avisés que la détermination de la validité de tout droit de brevet et le
risque de violation de ces droits leur incombent entièrement. Des informations supplémentaires
peuvent être obtenues auprès de l'ISO ou de l'Association des normes IEEE.

1 Description
1.1 Domaine d'application
Dans le contexte de la famille de normes ISO/IEEE 11073 relatives à la communication entre des
dispositifs, la présente norme établit une définition normative de la communication entre des
dispositifs de moniteurs de pression sanguine personnels de télésanté et des moteurs
informatiques (par exemple des téléphones cellulaires, des ordinateurs personnels, des
équipements personnels de santé et des boîtiers décodeurs) d'une manière qui permet une
interopérabilité du type prêt à l'emploi. Elle s'appuie sur les parties appropriées de normes
existantes, y compris la terminologie, des modèles d'informations, des normes de profils
d'applications et des normes de transport de l'ISO/IEEE 11073. Elle spécifie l'utilisation de codes,
de formats et de comportements en termes spécifiques dans les environnements de télésanté, en
limitant les choix à des cadres de travail de base en faveur de l'interopérabilité. La présente norme
définit un noyau commun de fonctionnalités de communication pour les moniteurs de pression
sanguine personnels de télésanté.
1.2 Objet
La présente norme répond au besoin d'une norme indépendante définie de manière ouverte portant
sur la commande de l'échange d'informations entre des dispositifs personnels de santé et des
moteurs informatiques (par exemple des téléphones cellulaires, des ordinateurs personnels, des
équipements personnels de santé et des boîtiers décodeurs). L'interopérabilité est la clé de la
croissance du marché potentiel de ces dispositifs et pour permettre aux personnes d'être des
acteurs mieux informés dans la gestion de leur santé.

4 Introduction à l'ISO/IEEE 11073 portant sur les dispositifs personnels
de santé
4.1 Généralités
La présente norme et le reste de la série des normes ISO/IEEE 11073 portant sur les dispositifs
personnels de santé (PHD) s'intègrent dans le contexte plus large de la série des normes
ISO/IEEE 11073. La suite complète de normes permet aux agents de s'interconnecter et
d'interopérer avec les gestionnaires et avec les systèmes d'informations informatisés de soins. Voir
l'IEEE 11073-20601 pour une description des principes directeurs pour cette série de normes
ISO/IEEE 11073 portant sur les dispositifs personnels de santé.
4 © IEEE 2010 – Tous droits réservés

L'IEEE 11073-20601 prend en charge la modélisation et la mise en œuvre d'un ensemble important
de dispositifs personnels de santé. La présente norme définit des aspects du dispositif de moniteur
de pression sanguine. Elle décrit tous les aspects nécessaires à la mise en œuvre des services de
la couche d'application et du protocole d'échange de données entre un agent de moniteur de
pression sanguine PHD de l'ISO/IEEE 11073 et un gestionnaire. La présente norme définit un
sous-ensemble des objets et la fonctionnalité présents dans l'IEEE 11073-20601, avec le
développement et l'ajout de définitions lorsque cela est approprié. Toutes les nouvelles définitions
sont données à l'Annexe B en notation à syntaxe abstraite un (ASN.1) [B7]. Les codes de
nomenclature auxquels il est fait référence dans la présente norme, qui ne sont pas définis dans
l'IEEE 11073-20601, sont définis de manière normative à l'Annexe C.
4.2 Introduction aux constructions de modélisation de l'IEEE 11073-20601
4.2.1 Généralités
La série de normes ISO/IEEE 11073, et en particulier l'IEEE 11073-20601, est fondée sur un
paradigme de gestion de systèmes orientée objet. Le modèle de système global est divisé en trois
principales composantes: le modèle d'informations du domaine (DIM), le modèle de service et le
modèle de communication. Voir l'IEEE 11073-20601 pour une description détaillée des
constructions de la modélisation.
4.2.2 Modèle d'informations du domaine
Le DIM est un modèle hiérarchique qui décrit un agent sous la forme d'un ensemble d'objets. Ces
objets et leurs attributs représentent les éléments qui déterminent le comportement et signalent le
statut de l'agent et les données qu'un agent peut communiquer à un gestionnaire. La
communication entre l'agent et le gestionnaire est définie par le protocole d'application dans l'IEEE
11073-20601.
4.2.3 Modèle de service
Le modèle de service définit les mécanismes conceptuels pour les services d'échange de données.
De tels services sont mappés sur des messages qui sont échangés entre l'agent et le gestionnaire.
Les messages de protocole dans la série de normes ISO/IEEE 11073 sont définis en ASN.1. Les
messages définis dans l'IEEE 11073-20601 peuvent coexister avec les messages définis dans les
autres profils d'application de normes définis dans la série de normes ISO/IEEE 11073.
4.2.4 Modèle de communication
D'une manière générale, le modèle de communication prend en charge la topologie d'un ou de
plusieurs agents qui communiquent sur des connexions logiques de point à point avec un seul
gestionnaire. Pour chaque connexion logique de point à point, le comportement dynamique du
système est défini par une machine à états finis de connexion, telle que spécifiée dans
l'IEEE 11073-20601.
4.2.5 Mise en œuvre des modèles
Un agent mettant en œuvre la présente norme doit mettre en œuvre tous les éléments obligatoires
des modèles d'informations, de service et de communication, de même que tous les éléments
conditionnels où la condition est satisfaite. Il convient que l'agent mette en œuvre les éléments
recommandés et il peut mettre en œuvre toute combinaison des éléments facultatifs. Un
gestionnaire mettant en œuvre la présente norme doit utiliser au moins l'un des éléments
obligatoires, conditionnels, recommandés ou facultatifs. Dans ce contexte, «utiliser» signifie utiliser
l'élément en tant que partie de la fonction primaire du dispositif gestionnaire. Par exemple, un
gestionnaire dont la fonction primaire consiste à afficher des données devrait afficher un élément de
données dans l'élément pour l'utiliser.

5 Concepts et modalités de dispositifs de moniteurs de pression sanguine
5.1 Généralités
Le présent article présente les concepts généraux des dispositifs de moniteurs de pression
sanguine. Dans le contexte des dispositifs personnels de santé dans la présente famille de normes,
un moniteur de pression sanguine est un dispositif qui mesure la pression sanguine [c'est-à-dire les
pressions systolique, diastolique et artérielle moyenne (MAP)] et, optionnellement, le pouls de
manière non invasive. Habituellement, les dispositifs de moniteurs de pression sanguine considérés
dans la présente norme gonflent un brassard pour obturer une artère et ensuite pour mesurer la
réaction de l'artère alors que la pression est relâchée, les résultats étant convertis en valeurs
systolique, diastolique et MAP. Optionnellement, la fréquence du pouls peut être déterminée en
même temps.
Les dispositifs de moniteurs de pression sanguine peuvent utiliser diverses techniques pour mesurer
la pression sanguine et la fréquence du pouls. Une méthode caractéristique est la méthode
oscillométrique où les oscillations de la pression du brassard sont analysées pour obtenir des
valeurs de la pression sanguine. Une autre technique est la méthode sthétacoustique automatisée
où le dispositif utilise un microphone pour détecter les sons de Korotoff au cours du dégonflage du
brassard. Les dispositifs sthétacoustiques mesurent les valeurs systolique et diastolique et estiment
la pression MAP.
Dans les moniteurs domestiques, la méthode oscillométrique est habituellement utilisée. Elle permet
que le mesurage soit fait électroniquement. Dans la méthode oscillométrique, de petites variations
de pression (oscillations) se produisent dans le brassard du fait des impulsions de la pression
sanguine au cours du gonflage et du dégonflage du brassard et elles sont détectées. Ces
oscillations, qui augmentent tout d'abord et ensuite diminuent, sont mémorisées avec les valeurs
correspondantes de la pression du brassard dans le sphygmomanomètre automatisé. Grâce à ces
valeurs mémorisées, les valeurs de la pression systolique, de la pression diastolique et de la
pression sanguine moyenne peuvent être mathématiquement déduites en utilisant un algorithme
approprié.
La pression sanguine est historiquement mesurée le plus fréquemment en utilisant les unités de
millimètres de mercure (mmHg). Les kilopascals (kPa) peuvent également être utilisés. La présente
norme prend en charge à la fois les millimètres de mercure (mmHg) et les kilopascals (kPa).
5.2 Pression systolique et pression diastolique
Les mesures de la pression sanguine systolique et de la pression sanguine diastolique indiquent la
pression sanguine la plus haute et la pression sanguine la plus faible au cours du cycle cardiaque.
Normalement, un seul mesurage est insuffisant pour fournir des informations complètes en ce qui
concerne l'état du cœur et du système vasculaire. Par conséquent, les mesures de la pression
sanguine systolique et de la pression sanguine diastolique sont fournies. Conformément à la
présente norme, la pression sanguine systolique et la pression sanguine diastolique sont toujours
indiquées ensemble.
5.3 Pression artérielle moyenne
La pression artérielle moyenne est indiquée dans les mêmes unités que la pression sanguine
systolique et la pression sanguine diastolique. Elle est indiquée en même temps que la pression
sanguine systolique et la pression sanguine diastolique. Elle est requise pour la présente norme.
5.4 Fréquence du pouls
La fréquence du pouls est mesurée en battements par minute (BPM). L'indication de la fréquence du
pouls est prise en charge par la présente norme mais elle est facultative dans certaines
configurations.

6 Modèle d'informations du domaine du moniteur de pression sanguine
6.1 Description
Le présent article décrit le modèle d'informations du domaine du moniteur de pression sanguine.
6.2 Extensions de classes
Dans la présente norme, aucune extension de classe n'est définie en ce qui concerne
l'IEEE 11073-20601.
6.3 Diagramme d'instance d'objet
Le diagramme d'instance d'objet du modèle d'informations du domaine du moniteur de pression
sanguine, défini pour les besoins de la présente norme, est représenté à la Figure 1.
Les objets du DIM, tels qu'ils sont représentés à la Figure 1, sont décrits de 6.4 à 6.12. Ceci inclut
l'objet système de dispositif médical (MDS) (voir 6.5), les objets numériques (voir 6.6), le
groupement d'échantillons en temps réel (RT-SA) (voir 1.1), les objets numération (voir 1.1), les
objets PM-store (voir 6.9) et les objets analyseur (voir 6.10). Voir 6.11 pour les règles d'extension du
modèle d'informations du moniteur de pression sanguine au-delà des éléments tels que décrits
dans la présente norme. Chaque paragraphe qui décrit un objet du moniteur de pression sanguine
contient les informations suivantes.
⎯ Le code de nomenclature utilisé pour identifier la classe de l'objet. Un exemple de l'endroit où
ce code est utilisé est l'événement de configuration, où la classe d'objet est signalée pour
chaque objet. Cela permet au gestionnaire de déterminer si la classe de l'objet qui est spécifiée
est une classe numérique, une classe de groupement d'échantillons en temps réel, une classe
numération, une classe d'analyseur ou une classe PM-store.
⎯ Les attributs de l'objet. Chaque objet a des attributs qui représentent et acheminent des
informations sur le dispositif physique et ses sources de données. Chaque objet a un attribut
Poignée qui identifie l'instance d'objet dans un agent. Les valeurs des attributs font l'objet d'un
accès et elles sont modifiées en utilisant des méthodes telles que GET (obtention) et SET
(fixation). Les types d'attributs sont définis en utilisant une notation ASN.1. Les définitions de la
notation ASN.1 pour de nouveaux types d'attributs spécifiques de la présente norme se
trouvent à l'Annexe B et les définitions de l'ASN.1 pour les types d'attributs existants auxquels il
est fait référence dans la présente norme se trouvent dans l'IEEE 11073-20601.
⎯ Les méthodes disponibles sur l'objet.
⎯ Les événements potentiels générés par l'objet. Les données sont envoyées au gestionnaire en
utilisant des événements.
⎯ Les services disponibles tels que l'obtention ou la fixation des attributs.
Les attributs pour chaque classe sont définis dans des tables qui spécifient le nom de l'attribut, sa
valeur et son qualificateur. Les qualificateurs sont des lettres qui signifient: M – l'attribut est
obligatoire, C – l'attribut est conditionnel et dépend de la condition mentionnée dans la colonne
Remarque ou Valeur (s'il est fait référence à l'IEEE 11073-20601, alors elle contient les conditions),
R — l'attribut est recommandé, NR — l'attribut n'est pas recommandé et O — l'attribut est optionnel.
Les attributs obligatoires doivent être mis en œuvre par un agent. Les attributs conditionnels doivent
être mis en œuvre si la condition s'applique et peuvent être mis en œuvre d'une autre manière. Il
convient que l'agent mette en œuvre les attributs recommandés. Il convient que l'agent ne mette pas
en œuvre les attributs non recommandés. Les attributs optionnels peuvent être mis en œuvre par
l'agent.

Les attributs peuvent être soit statiques, ce qui signifie qu'ils doivent rester inchangés après que la
configuration a fait l'objet d'un accord, soit dynamiques, ce qui signifie que l'attribut peut changer à
un certain instant après la configuration.

Figure 1 — Moniteur de pression sanguine — Modèle d'informations du domaine
6.4 Types de configurations
6.4.1 Généralités
Comme spécifié dans l'IEEE 11073-20601, il existe deux styles de configuration disponibles. Les
paragraphes 6.4.2 et 6.4.3 introduisent brièvement la configuration normalisée et la configuration
étendue.
6.4.2 Configuration normalisée
Les configurations normalisées sont définies dans les parties IEEE 11073-104zz relatives à la
spécialisation des dispositifs (par exemple la présente norme) et se voient affecter un identificateur
bien connu (Dev-Configuration-Id). L'utilisation de la configuration normalisée est négociée à l'instant
de l'association entre l'agent et le gestionnaire. Si le gestionnaire reconnaît la configuration et choisit
de fonctionner en utilisant la configuration, alors l'agent peut envoyer les mesures immédiatement.
Si le gestionnaire ne reconnaît pas la configuration, l'agent fournit la configuration avant de
transmettre les informations de mesure.
6.4.3 Configuration étendue
Dans les configurations étendues, la configuration de l'agent n'est pas prédéfinie dans une norme.
L'agent détermine les objets, les attributs et les valeurs qu'il souhaite utiliser dans une configuration
et affecte un identificateur de configuration. Lorsque l'agent s'associe à un gestionnaire, il négocie
une configuration acceptable. Habituellement, le gestionnaire ne reconnaît pas la configuration de
l'agent à la première connexion, de sorte que le gestionnaire répond que l'agent doit envoyer ses
informations de configuration sous la forme d'un rapport d'événement de configuration. Cependant,
si le gestionnaire reconnaît la configuration, soit du fait qu'elle est préchargée d'une certaine
8 © IEEE 2010 – Tous droits réservés

manière, soit du fait que l'agent s'est précédemment associé avec le gestionnaire, alors le
gestionnaire répond que la configuration est connue et qu'aucune information de configuration
supplémentaire ne doit être envoyée.

Voir l'IEEE 11073-20601 pour une description explicative relative aux attributs individuels de même
que pour des informations sur l'identificateur d'attribut et sur le type d'attribut.
L'attribut Dev-Configuration-Id contient un identificateur localement unique de 16 bits qui identifie la
configuration du dispositif. Pour un agent moniteur de pression sanguine doté d'une configuration
étendue, cet identificateur est choisi dans la plage de extended-config-start (début de configuration
étendue) à extended-config-end (fin de configuration étendue) (voir l'IEEE 11073-20601) comme
indiqué dans le Tableau 1.
L'agent envoie l'attribut Dev-Configuration-Id au cours de l'état Associating (association) (voir 8.3)
pour identifier sa configuration pendant la durée de l'association. Si le gestionnaire possède déjà les
informations de configuration se rapportant à l'attribut Dev-Configuration-Id, il reconnaît l'attribut
Dev-Configuration-Id. L'état Configuring (configuration) (voir 8.4) est alors sauté et l'agent et le
gestionnaire entrent alors dans l'état Operating (fonctionnement). Si le gestionnaire ne reconnaît
pas l'attribut Dev-Configuration-Id, l'agent et le gestionnaire entrent dans l'état Configuring
(configuration).
Si un agent met en œuvre de multiples spécialisations selon l'IEEE 11073-104zz, l'attribut System-
Type-Spec-List est une liste de paires type/version, chacune faisant référence à la spécialisation du
dispositif respectif et à la version de cette norme.
6.5.2 Méthodes de l'objet MDS
Le Tableau 2 définit les méthodes (actions) de l'objet MDS. Ces méthodes sont appelées en
utilisant le service ACTION. Dans le Tableau 2, la colonne Subservice type name (nom de type de
sous-service) définit le nom de la méthode, la colonne Mode définit si la
