EN ISO 11073-10421:2012 Health informatics - Personal health device communication - Part 10421: Device specialization - Peak expiratory flow monitor (peak flow)
The scope of this standard is to establish a normative definition of communication between personal telehealth peak flow monitoring devices (agents) and managers (e.g., cell phones, personal computers, personal health appliances, and set top boxes) in a manner that enables plug-and-play interoperability. It leverages work done in other ISO/IEEE 11073 standards including existing terminology, information profiles, 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 functionality of a peak-flow monitoring device.The use case is restricted to personal respiratory monitoring and therefore does not include hospital-basedspirometry. Continuous and high-acuity monitoring (e.g., for emergency response) are outside the scope ofthe use case.
