DEV.PCIM is the repository for all artifacts related to the development of the IHE DEV PCIM Profile.

Overview

The Point-of-Care Identity Management (PCIM) Profile defines transactions for reporting, managing and consuming device-patient association status. Accurate device-patient association status has numerous benefits, but key to the profile is ensuring that device data being transmitted can be stamped with accurate patient information. This not only increases patient safety, but also provides value to the caregiver as the alarm or other data has the patient and optional location attached to it.

Status

A foundational change proposal (CP), Revision 2.0, that refines the Point-of-Care Identity Management (PCIM) Revsion 1.1 - Trial implementation specification, has been balloted, approved and posted for public review.

A work list is in place for review of additional CPs.
