About This Item
IEEE 11073-20601-2008 defines an application profile for optimized exchange protocol in personal health device communication. It is part of IEEE Health informatics and focuses on how bioengineering-related devices can exchange data in a structured, interoperable way. For product teams and specifiers, IEEE 11073-20601-2008 helps clarify communication expectations between personal health devices and receiving systems, supporting more consistent implementation, testing, and integration across health monitoring workflows.
About IEEE 11073-20601-2008
This standard addresses the communication profile used for personal health device data exchange, with emphasis on an optimized protocol suited to health informatics applications. IEEE 11073-20601-2008 sits within the IEEE 11073 family and is relevant where device communication needs to be precise, repeatable, and structured. Its application-profile focus makes it useful for defining how data is organized and transferred, which can help reduce ambiguity when developing or evaluating interoperable bioengineering-oriented health device systems.
Where is IEEE 11073-20601-2008 used?
IEEE 11073-20601-2008 is commonly used in personal health device environments where measurement data must move reliably between a device and a host system. This may include connected monitoring equipment, home health workflows, clinical intake systems, and other bioengineering applications that depend on standardized device communication. The specification is especially relevant when integrating devices into software platforms that need a clear exchange protocol for health data capture, transmission, and interpretation.
Importance in practice
In practice, IEEE 11073-20601-2008 matters because a defined communication profile supports consistency across implementations and helps limit integration issues. For procurement, it can inform compatibility checks; for engineering, it can guide design control and interface testing; and for operations, it may reduce risk of data misinterpretation between devices and receiving systems. Since this edition is marked superseded, users often reference it for legacy support, comparison, or compatibility review.
