FR Recognition Number 13-146
Standard
IEEE  11073-10103 Second edition 2023
Health informatics - Point-of-care medical device communication - Part 10103: Nomenclature - Implantable device, cardiac
Scope/Abstract
The base nomenclature provided in IEEE 11073 to support terminology for implantable cardiac devices is extended in this standard. Devices within the scope of this nomenclature are implantable devices such as pacemakers, defibrillators, devices for cardiac resynchronization therapy, and implantable cardiac monitors. The discrete terms necessary to convey a clinically relevant summary of the information obtained during a device interrogation are defined in this nomenclature. To improve workflow efficiencies, cardiology and electrophysiology practices require the management of summary interrogation information from all vendor devices and systems in a central system such as an Electronic Health Records (EHR) system or a device clinic management system. To address this requirement, the Implantable Device, Cardiac (IDC) Nomenclature defines a standard-based terminology for device data. The nomenclature facilitates the transfer of data from the vendor proprietary systems to the clinic EHR or device clinic management system.
Extent of Recognition
Complete standard
Rationale for Recognition
This standard is relevant to medical devices and is recognized on its scientific and technical merit and/or because it supports existing regulatory policies.
Transition Period
FDA recognition of ISO IEEE 11073-10103 First edition 2014-03-01 [Rec# 13-84] will be superseded by recognition of IEEE 11073-10103 Second edition 2023 [Rec# 13-146]. FDA will accept declarations of conformity, in support of premarket submissions, to [Rec# 13-84] until July 4, 2027. After this transition period, declarations of conformity to [Rec# 13-84] will not be accepted.
