ISO/IEEE 11073-30400:2012(E) iv © ISO 2012 – All rights reserved© IEEE 2012 – All rights reserved 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 11073-30400 was prepared by the IEEE 11073 Standards Comittee of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (as IEEE Std 11073-30400-2010). 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.

Introduction This introduction is not part of IEEE Std 11073-30400-2010, Health informatics—Point-of-Care medical device communication—Part 30400: Interface profile—Cabled Ethernet. ISO/IEEE 11073 standards enable communication between medical devices and external computer systems. They provide automatic and detailed electronic data capture of patient vital signs information and device operational data. The primary goals are as follows: ⎯ To provide real-time plug-and-play interoperability for patient-connected medical devices ⎯ To facilitate the efficient exchange of vital signs and medical device data, acquired at the PoC, in all health care environments “Real time” means that data from multiple devices can be retrieved, time correlated, and displayed or processed in fractions of a second. “Plug and play” means that all the clinician has to do is make the connection between devices. The devices automatically detect, configure, and initiate communication without any other human interaction. “Efficient exchange of medical device data” means that information that is captured at the Point of Care (e.g., patient vital signs data) can be archived, retrieved, and processed by many different types of applications without extensive software and equipment support, and without needless loss of information. The standards are especially targeted at acute and continuing care devices, such as patient monitors, ventilators, infusion pumps, electrocardiogram (ECG) devices, and so on. They comprise a family of standards that can be layered together to provide connectivity optimized for the specific devices being interfaced.
This standard defines a communications interface profile. This profile is for a cable-connected, Ethernet-based local area network (LAN) for the interconnection of medical devices.
Specifically, this standard calls out layers 1 and 2 of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) reference model (physical and data link layers) communications services and protocols, as implemented in
IEEE Std 802.3-2008,a that are appropriate for the medical communications environment. This standard is one part of the family of ISO/IEEE 11073 series of standards. It is compatible with the upper layer ISO/IEEE 11073 standards. It is expected that this standard will be combined, as appropriate, with other standards from the ISO/IEEE 11073 series. The primary users of this standard are technical personnel who are creating or interfacing with a medical communications system. Familiarity with the ISO/IEEE 11073 family of standards is recommended. Familiarity with communications and networking technologies is also recommended.

The scope is limited to referencing the appropriate Ethernet family specifications and to calling out any specific special needs or requirements of the ISO/IEEE 11073 environment, with a particular focus on easing interoperability and controlling costs. 1.2 Purpose This standard defines a comprehensive set of protocols consistent with the ISO/IEEE 11073 and Ethernet family of protocols for common use by medical devices in networked operating contexts. By providing this standard, the ISO/IEEE 11073 design goal to provide real-time plug-and-play interoperability will be extended to a broad set of network interfaces.

Figure 1 —Clinical PoC environment The interface reference points (“A” through “J”) allow the different interface requirements in an overall clinical PoC environment to be appropriately considered and easily referenced. The reference points are described as follows: ⎯ Reference points “A” through “D” between ISO/IEEE 11073-30200 ports. ⎯ Not part of this standard. However, this is shown for completeness with respect to the
ISO/IEEE 11073 interfaces deployed in the clinical PoC environment. ⎯ Reference point “E” between ISO/IEEE 11073-30200 ports and IEEE 802.3 ports. ⎯ Not part of this standard. However, this is shown for completeness with respect to the
ISO/IEEE 11073 interfaces deployed in the clinical PoC environment. Compatibility is discussed in ISO/IEEE 11073-30200:2004. ⎯ Reference points “F” through “I” between IEEE 11073-30400 ports and IEEE 802.3 ports. © ISO 2012 – All rights reserved © IEEE 2012 – All rights reserved SIST EN ISO 11073-30400:20135ISO/IEEE 11073-30400:2012(E)



⎯ These are the connectivity options in scope for this document. ⎯ The BCC and the network connected medical device shall implement IEEE 802.3 Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) functionality. ⎯ Reference point “J” between IEEE 802.3 ports and ISO/IEEE 11073-30200 ports. ⎯ By definition, ISO/IEEE 11073-30200:2004 is for deployment in a clinical PoC environment. The “J” reference point is between a device in the PoC area and the networking infrastructure. Thus, reference point “J” is a specific example of nonadherence to the definition of PoC area. 4.2 Use of normative references This standard makes normative reference to IEEE Std 802.3.
