| Bundle – HDDT CGM Summary Report |
This profile defines the exchange of aggregated measurement data for the Mandatory Interoperable Value (MIV) "Continuous Glucose Measurement". By this it provides a patient’s glucose profile for a defined period. The MIV "Continuous Glucose Measurement" is e.g. implemented by real-time Continuous Glocose Monitoring devices (rtCGM) and Automated Insulin Delivery systems (AID) that control an insulin pump from rtCGM data. Future non-invasive measuring methods will expectedly be linked with this MIV and therefore use this profile for sharing aggregated glucose profile data with DiGA, too. This profile constrains the FHIR Bundle resource for use as the result container of the The Bundle is of type collection and MUST contain only resources of the following types:
The purpose of this Bundle profile is to provide a consistent structure for server responses when clients query for CGM data with aggregation logic.

This profile defines a Personal Health Device within the context of § 374a SGB V. A Personal Health Device acc. to this profile is any medical aid or implant that
Personal Health Devices that fulfill the criteria of this regulation MUST be able to pass on data to authorized Digital Health Applications (DiGA acc. § 374a SGB V) using the protocols and interfaces as defined in the HDDT specification. This profile helps a device data consuming DiGA to
Obligations and Conventions: The Personal Health Device’s backend regularely synchronizes with the device hardware through a gateway (Personal Health Gateway).
The maximum delay that the concrete end-to-end synchronization from the Personal Health Device to the FHIR resource server imposes is provided by the BfArM HIIS-VZ (Device Registry) per MIV

| DeviceMetric – Sensor Type and Calibration Status |
The HddtSensorTypeAndCalibrationStatus profile captures the calibration status of a sensor which is part of a Personal Health Device. Personal Health Devices need to be calibrated in order to provide safe measurements. Some devices are already calibrated by the manufacturer while others calibrate themselves after activation and others need to be calibrated by the patient. If a Personal Health Device transmits data from a non calibrated sensor to the resource server at all depends on the concrete product. For a DiGA as a device data consumer to process device data in a safe manner, it must be transparent if the data it received was measured by a calibrated sensor or not. For devices where the sensor that measured a value requires automated or manual calibration, the Observation capturing this value
MUST refer to a HddtSensorTypeAndCalibrationStatus resource through its The HddtSensorTypeAndCalibrationStatus of a measurement MUST always refer to a HddTPersonalHealthDevice Device resource that represents the Personal Health Device that contains the sensor. This is a many-to-one relationship which allows for a Personal Health Device to contain multiple sensors for different measured values. E.g. by this a pulse oximeter as a HDDT Personal Health Device can provide pulse and SPO2 as two different interoperable values with each of this values being linked with a dedicated HddtSensorTypeAndCalibrationStatus resource. Obligations and Conventions: DiGA as device data consumers SHOULD NOT rely on the Constraints applied:

| Observation - HDDT Blood Pressure Value |
Profile for capturing blood pressure value as FHIR Observation resources. This profile defines the exchange of blood pressure value data for the Mandatory Interoperable Value (MIV) "Blood Pressure Monitoring" which is technically defined by the ValueSet hddt-miv-blood-pressure-value. This MIV is e.g. implemented by automated sphygmomanometers (oszillometric, auscultatory) that can connect to a Personal Health Gateway (e.g. a mobile app for tracking blood pressure values) through wireless communication. Blood pressure measurements consist of multiple components: systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and optionally mean blood pressure. This profile uses the LOINC panel code #85354-9 “Blood pressure panel with all children optional” defined in the MIV hddt-miv-blood-pressure-value to represent the complete measurement. Obligations and Conventions: Each Blood Pressure Measurement MUST hold a reference to a Personal Health Device Device resource. Blood pressure devices typically do not require calibration. This profile inherits from the FHIR Blood Pressure profile ( Caution: For privacy and data protection, the subject reference MUST only use pseudonymized or anonymized identifiers. Direct patient identification is not permitted. Constraints applied:

| Observation – Blood Glucose Measurement |
Profile for capturing blood glucose measurements as FHIR Observation resources. This profile defines the exchange of a single measurement data for the Mandatory Interoperable Value (MIV) "Blood Glucose Measurement" which is technically defined by the ValueSet hddt-miv-blood-glucose-measurement. This MIV is e.g. implemented by blood glucose meter (glucometer) that can connect to a Personal Health Gateway (e.g. a mobile app for keeping diabetes diary) through wireless or wired communication. Obligations and Conventions: Each Blood Glucose Measurement MUST either hold a reference to a Sensor Type And Calibration Status DeviceMetric resource or to a Personal Health Device Device resource (eXclusive OR). A reference to Sensor Type And Calibration Status MUST be provided from the Observation resource if the sensor for measuring blood glucose needs to be calibrated (either automatically or by the user) or if the sensor may change its calibration status over time. Constraints applied:

| Observation – Complete Lung Function Testing |
Profile for capturing the relative lung function testings (i.e. an individual measurement divided by the corresponding reference value) as FHIR Observation resources. This profile defines the exchange of a single relative value for the Mandatory Interoperable Value (MIV) "Lung Function Testing" which is technically defined by the ValueSet hddt-miv-lung-function-testing. This MIV is e.g. implemented by peak flow meter that can connect to a Personal Health Gateway (e.g. a mobile app for tracking lung function values) through wireless or wired communication. Obligations and Conventions: Each Lung Function Testing MAY either hold a reference to a Sensor Type And Calibration Status DeviceMetric resource or to a Personal Health Device Device resource (eXclusive OR). Typically the reference will be to a Device resource, but the option to reference a DeviceMetric resource is provided for compatibility with the overarching HDDT specification. Each instance of this Observation MUST reference the Observations holding the corresponding raw measurement and reference value via the Constraints applied:

| Observation – Continuous Glucose Measurement |
Profile for capturing continuous glucose measurements from real-time monitoring devices (esp. rtCGM). This profile defines the exchange of raw measurement data for the Mandatory Interoperable Value (MIV) "Continuous Glucose Measurement" which is technically defined by the ValueSet hddt-miv-continuous-glucose-measurement. This MIV is e.g. implemented by real-time Continuous Glocose Monitoring devices (rtCGM) and Automated Insulin Delivery systems (AID) that control an insulin pump from rtCGM data. Future non-invasive measuring methods will expectedly be linked with this MIV and therefore use this profile for sharing data with DiGA, too. Obligations and Conventions: Devices for continuously measuring glucose values may produce data with a sample rate of more than 1000 values per day (e.g. current
rtCGM provide measures for glucose in interstitial fluid with up to one value per minute). For sharing such data efficently, this profile
makes use of the FHIR sampledData data type. Sampled data is portioned into
chunks of a fixed size (for an exception see below), with the chunk size being set by the resource server (e.g. such that 24 h of measurements fit into a single chunk). If a DiGA
requests data for a period where the end time is earlier that the expected end time of the current chunk, the resource server only fills up the chunk
up to the requested end time and sets the Each Continuous Glucose Measurement MUST either hold a reference to a Sensor Type And Calibration Status DeviceMetric resource or to a
Personal Health Device Device resource (eXclusive OR). A reference to Sensor Type And Calibration Status MUST be provided
from the Observation resource if the sensor for continuous measuring needs to be calibrated (either automatically or by the user)
or if the sensor may change its calibration status over time. A change in Constraints applied:

The MIV Blood Glucose Measurement covers values from "bloody measurements" e.g. using capillary blood from the finger tip. Measurements are performed based on a care plan (e.g. measuring blood sugar before each meal) or ad hoc (e.g. a patient feeling dim what may be an indicator for a hypoglycamia).

The ValueSet for the MIV Blood Glucose Measurement contains LOINC codes for blood glucose measurements using blood or plasma as reference methods with the values provided as mass/volume and moles/volume. In addition more granular LOINC codes for "Glucose in Capillary blood by Glucometer" provided as mass/volume and moles/volume are included with the value set because these codes are already in use by several manufacturers of glucometers. |
