PD ISO/TR 28380-3:2014

This standard PD ISO/TR 28380-3:2014 Health informatics. IHE global standards adoption is classified in these ICS categories:

• 35.240.80 IT applications in health care technology

This part of this Technical Report describes the general methodology to analyse interoperability requirements in support of a use case to produce the selection and combination of the relevant Profiles specified in TR 28380-2. It is illustrated by applying this methodology to a small number of examples. It also identifies and proposes a high-level quantification of the benefits gained by the use of a profile based specification of interoperability. Finally this technical report will discuss the approach to effectively test interoperability from the specific of the standards and profiles, up to the level of business use cases.

ISO/TR 28380-1 is a companion to this part of this Technical Report. ISO/TR 28380-1 describes how the IHE process identifies technical use cases for interoperability and specifies profiles of selected standards to support these carefully defined healthcare tasks that depend on electronic information exchange. The reader is encouraged to be familiar with this process followed by IHE in developing its Profiles.

A wide portfolio of such profiles for Integration, Security, and Semantic Content is now available across various domains of healthcare clinical specialities and technologies, as described in ISO/TR 28380-2.

The reader of this part of this Technical Report is encouraged to be familiar with this process followed by IHE in developing its Profiles as it builds upon ISO/TR 28380-1 and ISO/TR 28380-2 by addressing a number of key issues to support eHealth projects across all sectors of health to more effectively deploy standards-based interoperability between software applications and devices, including within healthcare organizations and across healthcare and home settings.
