DeviceMetric Profiles

Scope and Usage

These DeviceMetric profiles are part of the Point-of-Care Device General Implementation Guide. A set of DeviceMetric resources represent measurements, calculations, status, and settings of a medical device.

A compliant device shall have DeviceMetric resources according to the Numeric, Enumeration, and Sample Array DeviceMetric profiles. The profiles define the following rules:

  • DeviceMetric.type shall have a coding from the ISO/IEEE 11073 MDC metrics nomenclature. The Rosetta Terminology Mapping Management System (RTMMS) lists available codes. DeviceMetric.type.coding allows additional coding from other code systems.
  • DeviceMetric.unit is optional for Numeric and Sample Array DeviceMetric resources. If present, it shall have a coding from the ISO/IEEE 11073 MDC units of measurement. DeviceMetric.unit.coding allows additional coding from other code systems.
  • DeviceMetric.source shall be present and refer to a Device resource according to the PoC Device profile.
  • DeviceMetric.parent shall be present and refer to the Channel DeviceComponent resource where this metric belongs to.
