Gerard,

As I move into my new position, I am trying to remove some of the negatives
about HL7.  We will likely rework the HDF.  Could you give me specific
detials on your comment - "The method HL7 deploys has its problems and
drawbacks as many are discovering or have discovered."?

Thanks

Ed

Sam and David,

I think it is time to tackle this problem.
(there are a few more but this is certainly one)

The CEN/ISO/IEEE devices community has tackled interoperability for quite
some time.
As far as I know that are very familiar with the principles behind the
CEN/ISO EN13606 and use it even to make devices 'plug-and-play'
interoperable.

What is going on in HL7 might be useful as an additional expression of
requirements in this field. (Use cases)
The method HL7 deploys has its problems and drawbacks as many are
discovering or have discovered.
But the use cases are a good starting point.

So the time has come for the worlds of devices and EHR'S to think about it.
I'm confident that the solution is around the corner when these folks come
together and do some work.

Gerard

            Are we talking mainly laboratory devices or all types of
            diagnostic and monitoring including imaging and home-based
            devices? --a tall order if the latter.
            Various HL7 TCs and SIGs including LAPOCT would be a starting
            point for the content and some of the use cases. Archetypes
            authored by the people with the need should protect the
            mainstream from this quagmire.

            David.
