Architecture Benefits
• Full End-to-End Architecture:
– Observed Measurements travel from the Medical Device to
Health Record
– Data keeps the accuracy, the semantic and the patient
identification
• Flexible Architecture:
– It can me adapted to most common Use Cases. From personal
wellness applications to remote patient monitoring.
• Publicly Available Standards:
– Continua Design Guidelines are publicly available for free
– Underlining Standards and specifications selected by Continua are
open and publicly available
– Continua Design Guidelines have been adopted by United Nations
through ITU-T as official global standard (H-810).
PCHA - Confidential
Empowering individuals to better manage their health.
Architecture Benefits

Interoperability Benefits
• Lower Design Costs: Save 40k – 80k USD* in development
costs per device**
• Faster to Market: Decrease integration time from 3
months to just 3 weeks*
• Increase Efficiency: Quicker, less expensive integration
with Heath Records
• More Robust and Reliable Communication: Higher
custumer satisfaction
• Forward/Backward compatibility: Longevity of devices
• Easy to Expand: Add new products with plug-and-play

Example: Japan Earthquake of 2011
•
•
•
•
•
The Disaster Cardiovascular Prevention Network (D-CAP) was developed to remotely
monitor the blood pressure of evacuees in campsites, with a goal to prevent cardiac
events in survivors identified as “high risk.”
400 people with elevated cardiac risk were enrolled in D-CAP program
D-CAP registrants received electronic identification cards and were encouraged to
measure their own blood pressure at automated stations within the evacuation
camp.
The data were sent via wireless communication to a data server and relayed to Jichi
Medical University, about 200 kilometers away. Clinicians monitored the data and
alerted on-site physicians by phone of any significant developments.
The system was deployed in just two weeks

Example: Japan Earthquake of 2011
Interoperability problem
• Continua guidelines allowed for a quick RPM solution during the Great East Japan Earthquake.
• Disaster Cardiovascular Prevention Network (D-CAP) was developed to remotely monitor the blood
pressure of evacuees in Campsites without hospital infrastructure.
• Interoperability was guaranteed because the six companies involved were Continua members.
• Devices: A&D (Automatic blood pressure monitors), Alive Inc. (Gateway firmware), Ryoto Electro
Corp. (data server), Panasonic (PC), Toppan Forms (Patient ID Cards), Intel (Project coordination)

ITU-T - H.810
2012:
–
–
In 2012, the World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly
adopted Resolution 78 – “Information and communication technology
applications and standards for improved access to e-health.”
That same week, the Global Standards Symposium expressed the need
for ITU to take a leading role in the e-health field by building on its
collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) to create a
global, open environment for the development and promotion of ehealth standards.
2013:
–
–
In December 2013, the International Telecommunication Union (ITU),
the United Nations’ specialized agency for information and
communication technologies (ICTs), announced the adoption of
Continua’s Design Guidelines for interoperability under
Recommendation ITU-T H.810.
International standards avoid costly market battles over preferred
technologies, and for companies operating in emerging markets, create
a level playing field with regard to market access. Through economies of
scale, global ICT standards can reduce costs for manufacturers,
operators and consumers, and are also an essential aid to developing
countries building their infrastructures and promoting economic dev.
2014:
–
–
Continua contributes entire test suite to the ITU. Test suites were
consented in July.
H.810 converted in to 6 different languages.
2015:
–
Continua working toward further contributions with ITU moving
forward (DG 2015 and other materials, etc.).
