Information exchange protocol for mobile heart monitoring system

The amount of information that can be gleamed from portable medical measuring apparatus is tremendous. Many portable medical apparatus manufacturers in the world are performing their own research and development to extract information. However, the data structure and protocol for the conveyance of the extracted information is left to the discretion of the manufacturers. This is because there is a lack of agreement on a standard data structure protocol format between such medical apparatus manufacturers to conform to a common communication and data transport protocol. Hence valuable extracted knowledge is left dispersed among these communities. This paper proposes an approach to a dynamic medical information exchange protocol to increase the interoperability of real-time medical measurements extracted by devices from medical industry manufacturers.
