Motivation: Location Services (LS) • Multiple System Types • Indoor Positioning System (IPS) • Global Positioning System (GPS) • Location-Based Services (LBS) • Real-Time Locating System (RTLS) • Multiple Technologies • Infrared (IR) • Ultrasound (US) • Passive RFID • Ultra Wide-Band (UWB) • Etc. Here it is! Tag
Motivation: Deployment Example • Example Niche Solutions in Single Hospital • Mobile Assets – Active Wi-Fi + IR • Immobile Assets – Passive UHF • Cath Lab Supplies - Passive HF • Instruments- 2D Barcodes • OR Staff/Patients – Active 900MHz + Ultrasound • Hand Hygiene Staff – Active 433MHz + LF • Long Term Care – Ultra Wide Band • Issues • Redundant • Costly • Interactions difficult
Motivation: Lack of Interoperability Example IR Beacon Vendor A IR Beacon Vendor B 433MHz Access Point Vendor A 900MHz Access Point Vendor B Tag 1 Tag 2
Motivation: Location as a Service LS CMMS EMR Other Service Bus
Common Framework: Objectives • Improve interoperability • Help to avoid costly redundancy of converging products • Maximize reuse and utility of the functionality • Improve consumer confidence
Common Framework: Approach • Std A • Std F • Std B • Common • Framework • Create Common Framework • Conceptual Information Model • Formal and Systematic Terminology • Standards built on the Framework • Recommended Practice for LSH Location Accuracy User Acceptance Test • Standard for LSH Use Case Definitions • Standard for LSH Location Data Management • Standard for LSH Blended multi-technology infrastructure • Standard for LSH Embedded LSH into devices • Standard for LSH Integration of outdoor/indoor mobile location • Standard for LSH Associations/Interactions between tags • Etc. • Std E • Std C Start Here • Std D
Common Framework: Terminology • area • action • accuracy • constraint • clinical • event • event history • locatable • locatable category • locatable positioning initiation • locatable positioning power • locatable-position accuracy • locatable-subject association • location • location naming coordinate convention • location naming symbolic convention • location naming relative convention • location coverage • location-enabled application • location-enabled application type • location interpretation • location quality of service • location service • location system of record • location symbolic hierarchy • locatable-position • non-clinical • position • positioning behavior • positioning computation • positioning engine • positioning method • association • chokepoints • precisely • presence-based • room • sub-room • positioning infrastructure • positioning infrastructure scope • positioning infrastructure model • positioning technology • positioning transformations • positioning reconciliation • positioning process ownership • positioning ranging technique • position-location mapping • precision • refresh rate • rule • service method • subject • subject system of record • subject-location • subject-location accuracy • subject-location history • subject-location latency • subject-location resolution • subject-locatable mapping • telemetry • telemetry history • trueness • use case
Common Framework: Mapping to Reality Framework Purchase #1: Vendor A RTLS Hand Hygiene Niche • Hand Hygiene Staff Tags • IR / 433MHz • Hand Hygiene Application • Clinical Workflow Application • Clinical Workflow Tags • IR / 900MHz • Engine Purchase #2: Vendor B RTLS Clinical Workflow
Common Framework: Mapping to Reality • App 3 • App 2 • App 1 • App 4 E A B C E D Middleware Vendor 1 E Type Interface • Engine • Access Points • Tags Vendor 2 Vendor 2 • Engine • Beacons • Tags
Common Framework: Mapping to Reality # Layer Name • Example Issues • Map and Space File Duplication • Historical Location Data Storage Duplication • Alert capabilities Redundant • Location Engine handled by multiple entities • Blurring between CMMS and RTLS Asset Tracking • Everyone wants to be the platform • Accuracy needs varies by use case, no provenance • And many more… CMMS RTLS Software Future Location-Enabled Apps 6 5 Location Service Wi-Fi RTLS Hardware Location Interpretation 4 Space Management Positioning Engine 3 Positioning Infrastructure 2 Locatable 1
Available Stepping forward…Location is not full Context Location correlates to Status Pump LS Status Clean Utility Dirty Utility Patient Room Pump • In Use • Dirty A101 A102 A103 • Was it really “In Use” or “In Patient Care Area”? • More data • Output from device • Association of Patient and Device
