scope:

Within the context of the ISO/IEEE 11073™ family of standards for device communication, this standard establishes a normative defi nition of communication between personal telehealth urine analyzer devices and managers (e.g., cell phones, personal computers, personal health appliances, 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 profi le standards, and transport standards. It specifi es the use of specifi c term codes, formats, and behaviors in telehealth environments restricting optionality in base frameworks in favor of interoperability. This standard defi nes a common core of communication functionality for personal telehealth urine analyzers.
