Overview

The IHE PCD develops standards-based interoperability profiles that address specific integration problems within the domain charter. It does this by following the IHE technical framework develoment process., which can be simply stated as:

  • Describe the integration problem (profile proposal) - detailing one or more real-world use case scenarios (brief 2-page documents lead to more detailed documents)
  • Develop Profile Supplements, which contain the specific content that will be published and ultimately included into the PCD Technical Framework (volumes 1 - 3)
  • Publish the Supplements for Public Comment and update the Supplements based on the feedback
  • Publish the Supplements for Trial Implementation - which is accomplished at annual Connectathon events
  • Finalize (freeze) the Supplement once its content has stabilized and been thoroughly validated.
  • Eventually integrate the Supplement into the PCD Technical Framework volumes

This page provides a launching point for the various PCD profiles based on the development cycle - starting with profile proposals and ending in the Connectathon and public demonstrations.

Profile Development Activity

Three new profiles From Cycle #3 are now published for Trial Implementation. These profiles are listed in PCD Proposals 2007-2008. Contact Manny at efurst@imp-tech.com if you would like to participate, or monitor the announcements on the PCD list servers.


Profile Selection

The IHE Patient Care Device Domain is working on the 2008-2009 Cycle and will shortly begin work on the 2009-2010 Cycle as well.
