Placeholder Verification of the Potential Demonstration Messaging

- Confirmed:

B Braun to AwarePoint - PCD-10 start/pause or stop

Hospira to AwarePoint - proprietary and possibly PCD-10

Hospira Location – Simulated display, live start/stop or pause

B Braun sent sample PCD-10 to EQ2; nothing yet from Hospira

Al will send PCD-04 sample to Jim; B Braun could send low battery alarm to EQ2 if desired

Philips monitor alarm to EQ2 – unknown status

- Manny to ask Bob and Rob to work with Al, John Rhoads for alarm

John would send a battery alarm.

- Monroe will send connection/configuration information next week.

- Jim offered insight into utilization: two aspects - units of time, units of use (e.g., one scan of a diagnostic ultrasound unit); location will require identification of the unit and location as free form or more specifically related to a universal structure. Monroe added that the ITI domain is looking at location in the limited sense of the hospital’s clinical location; this is not RTLS in the usual sense. He described the lack of standards.

Placeholder Posters

- MEM poster was discussed. Jim suggested that the center portion become a greater focus. He and Paul will offer suggestions early next week.

This will likely obviate the need for second poster describing the combination of DCM and RTLS.

- MEM: Change to IPEC for this year.

Placeholder Handout

- Participants will review the handout. It will be reviewed Tuesday and hopefully finalized next week. Carlene was thanked for the editing and revised format.

- Manny asked if a second handout focused on the DMC/RTLS demonstration and benefits would be useful as a take away and to facilitate biomeds’ discussion with other vendors, encouraging them to join the WG and develop the profiles.
