Software uses emerging IEEE 11073 standard and Bluetooth Medical Device Profile to wirelessly enable medical devices

According to HDM, the British firm Cambridge Consultants has created software, they call Vena, that can enable medical devices to transmit data wirelessly for as low as $10 each, depending on volume.

Vena embeds the emerging IEEE 11073 standard for how to present data in medical devices and the emerging Bluetooth Medical Device Profile for secure transport of medical data. Both standards are in trials and not yet fully approved.

From the Vena product page:

IEEE 11073 Personal Health Data is a framework of standards that addresses transport-independent application and information profiles between personal telehealth devices and monitors / managers (e.g. health appliance, set top box, cell phone, personal computer).  Device profiles include pulse oximeter, blood pressure monitor, weighing scale, and thermometer.

A Bluetooth profile defines how different applications use Bluetooth wireless technology to set up a connection and exchange data. The Medical Devices Working Group of the Bluetooth SIG developed the Bluetooth medical device protocol to ensure that devices in the medical environment can transfer data between devices in a secure and well defined way via Bluetooth wireless technology.

Googling "IEEE 11073 Personal Health Data" brought up this group:

The Continua Health Alliance was formed according to this paper by Randy Carroll (IBM), Rick Cnossen (Intel), Mark Schnell (Cisco), David Simons ( Philips) "[i]n an effort to develop interoperability guidelines for the emerging personal telehealth ecosystem."
