74	Mapping PCD into v3 CDA with relevance to RTM	Todd	Peter Hendler	August 5, 2009	Closed	Todd: VA was planning to move forward about use of CDA. He will talk with James McCain. Peter: Kaiser and VA working to trade documents as part of NHIN project. Goal is to assure the appropriate set of medical device semantic components is included in the appropriate location in CDA/CCD documents and HL7 v3 nessages. Todd will ask the VA as to whether there is still any interest in this project. Todd will schedule a webex the end of August/early September to discuss the status of the profile proposal and identify what needs to happen to move it forward in this next cycle. Will be addressed in Vancouver meeting the week of September 15. The HITSP CMDC/CDC Use Case includes a document communication profile. HL7 Technical Steering Committee, HITSP management, VA and Kaiser are considering how to move this forward. The technical requirements are clear, but there’s a lack of a sufficient number of volunteers to do the work. Will likely come up next week at HITSP meetings. PCD and HL7 will meet at HIMSS. HITSP is pushing for more robust document communications. Change date to April 15. October 21, 2009: John Rhoads noted there is a TC action item. This should remain on the TC. Close on PC.

91	Develop New Brief Profile Proposals for Cycle 5			August 5, 2009	Closed	For MEM: Battery management (leverage existing PCD-01), Location boundary alarms, Nomenclature requirements (Data types, names, value sets), Examine status of location services within HL7 Paul suggested including device related terms (status, etc.) and location information. Wiki page established. Call for new proposals shortly.Sept. 23: Multiparameter Decision Support Data Integration (Zaleskis) re clinical decision support system: Ken summarized the proposal. Location Tracking (Fuchs) has been submitted to the ITI domain because the scope is broader than devices. ITI will consider taking the lead and PCD will participate. Medical Equipment Management (Merritt). TheWP is out for public comment. Ken asked for comments on the priorities, sequence. He observed that for some of the use cases the data can be sent within existing profiles with additional coding. PIB Enhancements (Flanders). This addresses technical requirements and recommended practices. This arises from the potential for various system components having different patient identification data (race conditions, PDQ vs PAM issues, etc.) Enterprise ACM (Pattillo). Management of alarms across the enterprise may include non-device alarms. Ken asked if this should also be submitted to ITI. Middleware Systems (Stiefel). Some of this appears to be outside the scope of IHE. Steve suggested a WP would be useful. Ken suggested that some of this may be of interest to AAMI. Energy Delivery (Richards). Maureen summarized the proposal. Ken suggested this could be addressed as a device specialization issue. Terminology, semantics and parameters would be required. Ken asked if Maureen can help identify other companies and physicians that would be interested. IT system vendor participation would be worthwhile. Discussion with regard to recruiting receiving systems as well. Manny to send an email to Maureen, Anupriyo, John Hotchkiss. Query for Bulk Data (Fuchs). Carried forward from last year.

October 21, 2009: This is on HITSP schedule for 2015; PCD will try to make this happen earlier since it is needed for other items on the schedule that are due earlier and PCD-01 is ready.
