Summary

The Continua Design Guidelines (CDG) defines a framework of underlying standards and criteria that ensure the interoperability of devices and data used for personal connected health services. The Continua Design Guidelines also contains additional design guidelines (DGs) that further clarify the underlying standards or specifications by reducing the options or by adding missing features to improve interoperability.

ITU-T H.812.1 defines the additional design guidelines for the Observation Upload Certified Capability Class (CCC), whose function is to transfer an observation measurement from a medical device to a services application over the Services interface (Services-IF).

ITU-T H.812.1 is part of the "ITU-T H.810 interoperability design guidelines for personal connected health systems" subseries that covers the following areas:
