Artifacts Summary

This page provides a list of the FHIR artifacts defined as part of this implementation guide.

Behavior: Capability Statements

The following artifacts define the specific capabilities that different types of systems are expected to have in order to comply with this implementation guide. Systems conforming to this implementation guide are expected to declare conformance to one or more of the following capability statements.

CardX CIED Connectivity Server Capability Statement

This capability statement describes the requirements for systems that make CIED Connectivity data available.

Structures: Resource Profiles

These define constraints on FHIR resources for systems conforming to this implementation guide.

Device - CIED Monitor Profile

The CardX Device - CIED Monitor profile inherits characteristics from ISO/IEEE 11073-10103 - Implantable device, cardiac. The same CIED Device data elements that are included in ISO/IEEE 11073-10103, are must support for CIED Monitors in the FHIR profile.

Device - Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Device (CIED)

The CardX CIED Device profile is interoperable with ISO/IEEE 11073-10103 - Implantable device, cardiac. The cardinality of the profile aligns with the optionality of the ISO/IEEE 11073/10103 terms.

The following data-elements must always be present (Mandatory definition) or must be supported if the data is present in the sending system (Must Support definition). Within IEEE 11073-10103, MDC_IDC_DEV contains the following data elements: MDC_IDC_DEV_TYPE, MDC_IDC_DEV_MODEL, MDC_IDC_DEV_SERIAL, MDC_IDC_DEV_MFG

Observation - CIED Connectivity

Profile of the observation resource to present the most recent connectivity status and associated information for a CIED/Monitor combination. In most instances there will be one observation per CIED/monitor pair per patient, however some manufacturers may allow multiple CIEDs implanted in a patient to connect to a single monitor and have a single connectivity status for the entire system of devices.

CIEDs and monitors connect at regular intervals to exchange data ranging from every few minutes to every other week depending on the device/monitor configuration and manufacturer. The connectivity observation profile is a snapshot in time and is not intended to be used to query historical log information that may have been captured by the remote monitoring IoT platform. A single observation will be returned for every CIED/monitor pair.

Connectivity status is based on the actual time difference between the most recent successful communication and the present date. To manage disconnected patients, manufacturers have implemented additional functionality in their platforms. The connectivity modifier is included to represent an action performed by the user or business logic applied by the manufacturer. Examples of these are a user suspending a patient from appearing on the disconnected list in the remote monitoring system or the system automatically marking a patient as inactive after a prolonged disconnection period to remove them from appearing on the disconnected list in the user interface.

Patient - CIED Patient Profile

The CardX CIED patient profile is interoperable with the PID segment of the IHE Patient Care Device Technical Framework, Vol. 2, Section 3.9 - Communicate IDC Observations. The data elements in the FHIR profile are aligned, including allowing for the use of a concatenated Device Model and Serial Number to represent a unique patient identifier.
