Jargon is great!
Saves time. Makes sure only those who have been "initiated" can follow the conversation. Provides a rite-of-passage into geek club. Etc.
Hopefully the term / phrase descriptions below + abbreviation legend will help lower the barrier to entry ... at least a bit!

Glossary
In addition to the acronyms above, the following "terms of art" or phrases are often used in the SES MDI / SDPi+FHIR discussions:
| Term / Phrase | Meaning | References |
|---|---|---|
| Decoupled | In SDC, indicates a set of SOMDS PARTICIPANT system products that are independently developed ("decopuled") and can establish trust when integrated into a SOMDS. | |
| Point of Care Device | A regulated medical device used in the vicinity of the patient in acute care, by qualified professionals | |
| Personal Health Device | Most often a device used outside a medical setting, as for example in the home, by the patient for health tracking. | |
| Plug-and-Trust | Turn on plug-and-play MDI where the components needed for establishing "trust" between decoupled products can be established at the point of connection to an SOMDS. | |

Please use the Standards Knowledge Repository and don't create yet another Glossary. HL7 and IHE along with all the other JIT have agreed to this glossary.

John - your point is fine - skmtglossary.org is great and we have (1) no intention of creating something that substitutes for or conflicts with it, and (2) we would be fine with linking to the appropriate skmt entry where one exists, and, as we have before, we will use the IHE process for maintaining glossary entries in common over IHE which includes passing published ones in due course to skmtglossary.org. HOWEVER the purpose of this page is to give people using a set of pages that are very much in flux a quick and easy way to find the terms they are seeing, many of which have not reached the stage of publication in the sense that they need to be understood here. It is in no way inimical to orderly glossary process to help readers in this way.
