== Overview == 
Service-oriented Device Connectivity (SDC) is a web services (WS) based set of IEEE 11073 standards that support device-to-device interoperability optimized for acute care environments, including OR, ICU and ED.  They are the result of 10+ years of development in the Germany-based OR.net program and support real-time device reporting, alerting and control.  This "SDC @ IHE" initiative seeks to establish how these open standards-based technologies can be leveraged in an IHE technical framework architecture, leading to testing and certification of SDC-enabled devices, and integration with other healthcare enterprise facing profiles (e.g., IHE PCD DEC or ACM), as well as pre/post acute care contexts such as home-based care provided for by the IEEE 11073 Personal Health Device (PHD) / Continua specifications.

This effort is related to the [https://wiki.ihe.net/index.php/PCD_Profile_Device_Point-of-Care_Integration_(DPI) IHE PCD Device Point-of-care Interoperability (DPI) profiles] that also looked at how to integrate "from the device interface" connectivity using IHE technical framework profile specifications.  To that end, this initiative will first focus on the development of an "IHE PCD DPI - SDC White Paper", that will explore various aspects of SDC inclusion in IHE technical framework specifications and will lay out a possible roadmap for follow-on projects to be initiated 2019 Q4 and readied for testing and demonstration events in 2020 / 2021 and beyond.
