MedicalDeviceSystem FHIR Profile Proposal

MedicalDeviceSystem

Profile Details

Parent Resource

• DeviceComponent

Constraints to be Applied

• parent = Resource(MedicalDeviceSystem)

Extensions to be Applied

• performer = Resource(Device)
• subject = Resource(Device | Patient)
• location = Resource(Location)

Example Scenarios

• A simple MDS from a pulse oximeter containment tree.

Scope of coverage

The MedicalDeviceSystem profile describes the characteristics, operational status and capabilities of a particular device specialization.

Note:

For the initial scope, this MedicalDeviceSystem profile is only applicable to describe a single MDS node represents in the containment tree that is produced by the context scanner in any medical device that implements or derives from the ISO/IEEE 11073 standard.
