Minutes
Participants
Discussion
Item Topic Discussion 1 Overview of MEM Status Status/Discussion: The whitepaper is still under development. Next steps
- Roadmap
- Clarify the use cases versus scenarios
- Clarify scope of the blocks
Action(s):2 Detailed break-out of block diagrams Status/Discussion: - Patch Management
- Rename to Software Management
- Pending software should be clarified
- Downloaded and ready for install status
- Authorized for installation status
- Vendor supplied vs. OTS
- Upgrades vs. Bug fixes
- Should be explicit that this is not a push mechanism, only a reporting mechanism
- Patch history should be another system not a function of this reporting
- There should be a method of site customized software level (i.e. a drug library in pumps)
- This could also be transformed to compatibility management for example wireless compatibility
- Location Services
- Yes this is RTLS
- Not a protocol for location tracking but a method of exporting tracking information across the enterprise
- There was some work done on this several years back in HL7, need to investigate its status
- This would not be for location tracking (tag-type) companies but for interoperability vendors
- Only boundary alarms seems to have an obvious solution
- Also include in the scope a location query mechanism
- Battery Management
- The topics included in the poster seem to represent the issues
- Operational Status and Monitoring
- Define alerts versus alarms
- Include calibration check alarms
Action(s): Examine status of location services within HL73 MEM Roadmap Status/Discussion: Decisions/Issues:
- Some of this could be solved using just an aperiodic PCD-01 message
Action(s):
- New Brief Profile Proposals for Cycle 5
- Battery management (leverage existing PCD-01)
- Location boundary alarms
- Other work items for Cycle 5
- Nomenclature requirements (Data types, names, value sets)
