From Bedside Beeps to Interoperable Bytes – Getting your medical devices ready to talk the IEEE 11073 language

What if every device in the operating room could speak the same language? Discover how one open standard is making it a reality.

From Bedside Beeps to Interoperable Bytes – Getting your medical devices ready to talk the IEEE 11073 language
#1about 5 minutes

The challenge of disconnected devices in operating rooms

Operating rooms are filled with complex, manually configured devices that create risks and inefficiencies for medical staff.

#2about 5 minutes

Defining the goals of medical device interoperability

Interoperability aims to provide device context and answer critical questions about usage, performance, and workflow optimization.

#3about 5 minutes

An overview of the IEEE 11073 SDC standard

The standard uses a service-oriented architecture with layers for core communication, participant models, and device specializations.

#4about 3 minutes

How devices discover and share data with SDC

Devices use a discovery service to find each other and share a Medical Device Information Base (MDIB) to exchange context.

#5about 8 minutes

A practical guide to implementing SDC for devices

Implementation involves modeling device functions as a digital tree structure with static descriptions and dynamic states.

#6about 8 minutes

Demo: Describing a device with an MDIB XML

A pulse oximeter's capabilities are defined in an XML file using a hierarchical model and standardized coded values.

#7about 9 minutes

Demo: Building an SDC device and client in Python

Python code demonstrates how to create an SDC device that broadcasts its state and a client that subscribes to updates.

#8about 10 minutes

The future potential of connected medical device ecosystems

SDC enables advanced applications like data analytics, unified visualizations, and cross-vendor device orchestration in clinical settings.

#9about 7 minutes

Q&A on SDC adoption, embedded systems, and ethics

Key questions are answered regarding SDC performance on embedded devices, promoting adoption, and managing patient data security.
