File Exchange Format for Vital Signs, ENV and its use in Electronic Interchange of Polysomnography Data Alpo Värri Institute of Signal Processing, Tampere University of Technology Tampere, Finland

ENV 14271, Background work began in 1994 in CEN/TC251/PT-21 work began in 1994 in CEN/TC251/PT-21 vision: one format for all biosignals in the world vision: one format for all biosignals in the world work could not be finished before ENV Vital Signs Information Representation was frozen (now an ISO series standard) work could not be finished before ENV Vital Signs Information Representation was frozen (now an ISO series standard) project team CEN/TC251/PT-40 established in 1998 project team CEN/TC251/PT-40 established in 1998 final version delivered to CEN in 2002 final version delivered to CEN in 2002

Contents of the FEF specification Scope statement Scope statement References to ENV and others References to ENV and others Object model Object model Section and attribute definitions Section and attribute definitions Info for conformance statements Info for conformance statements Encoding rules (ASN.1) Encoding rules (ASN.1) Nomenclature of measurements, units, body sites, events etc. Nomenclature of measurements, units, body sites, events etc. Example defined byte by byte Example defined byte by byte

FEF does not always need a full implementation sections are coded in TLV style (tag, length, value) sections are coded in TLV style (tag, length, value) sections not needed by the reader can be skipped with the help of the length field to the beginning of the next section sections not needed by the reader can be skipped with the help of the length field to the beginning of the next section

ENV support for polysomnography all what is needed for general biosignal storage (except compression) all what is needed for general biosignal storage (except compression) measurement codes for all physiological signals and numeric measurements which CEN/TC251/WGIV & IEEE 1073 could think of measurement codes for all physiological signals and numeric measurements which CEN/TC251/WGIV & IEEE 1073 could think of event codes, all which were identified by CEN/TC251/WGIV & IEEE 1073 and a possibility for private extensions event codes, all which were identified by CEN/TC251/WGIV & IEEE 1073 and a possibility for private extensions

Responses to questions 1) What mechanism is used to insure integrity of multiple files (if they exist)? A: The format specification does not define any. It is considered as an implementation issue.

Respones to questions 2 a) Is patient information extensible or definable A: Demographic information is fixed but the ”Diagnostic Info” field can contain free form text 2 b) Can a file be easily deidentified A: Overwriting all text fields with spaces (ASCII 32) and removing all optional attributes from the demographic section deidentifies the file

Responses to questions 3) How is the raw data stored: A: For signals EDF style blocks are possible but it is possible to interlace all channels sample by sample (requires the same sampling frequency to all channels) or store all channel 1 samples first, then channel 2 etc.

Responses to questions 3 a) Can it handle differing frequencies for various channels? A: Yes, as EDF or even better 3 b) Can it handle differing byte resolutions for various channels? A: Yes, Allowed combinations of storagedatatype and storagedatasize are: unsigned 8, unsigned 16, unsigned 32, signed 8, signed 16, signed 32, ieee754float 32, ieee754float 64.

Responses to questions 3 c) Can it handle irregularly spaced measures (RR intervals etc.)? A: There is a section in the file which can store numeric measurement values with time stamps: NumericMeasuredDataSection

Responses to questions 4) How are ”events” defined and stored? A: They are stored in EnumerationMeasuredDataSection:

Responses to questions 4a) Does the event storage method allow expansion to new event types (without programming)? A: Yes, the default event code table can be extended through ISO/TC215/WG7 or one can even define an event coding scheme of one’s own and refer to that in the events section

Responses to questions 4b) Can new information be added to an event definition (without programming)? A: Yes, throuhg the use of one’s own nomenclature (= coding scheme). Alternatively, if standard event codes are used, one can use compound enumerations and add free text to accompany an event code

Responses to questions 4c) Are events fixed to a channel? A: They are linked either to a channel or to the medical device used in the activity. Environmental events exist, too:

Responses to questions 4d) Can events overlap? A: Yes, there is no limit to the amount of time-stamped events there can be within one second. Events can also be compound linking > 1 event codes to a single time stamp.

Responses to questions 4e) Can events reference (link to) other events? A: Compound enumerations are events occuring at the same time, i.e. they are time-linked. An arbitrary event cannot refer to any arbitrary event in general but one can always add a textual annotation to an event saying that ”this event is related to another one which occurred some 15 seconds ago”.

Responses to questions 5a) How are measurements of channels handled, eg. saturation? A: If a channel saturates, an Alert event can be stored to mark it in the file 5b) CPAP pressure (regularly spaced)? A: Either as a signal like EEG or as separate time-stamped numeric measurements 5c) RR interval or HR (irregularly spaced)? A: As time-stamped numeric measurements (metric codes and 16770)

Responses to questions 6) Are tabulations of information stored in the format (eg. AHI, TST)? A: A FEF file stores data of a single subject. A FEF file can contain data from different Session Tests, eg. different nights of which the whole multitude of signals and measurements are stored. One may decide to store only the TST of all nights into a FEF file, too (but FEF would be overkill for the purpose). However, the coding scheme does not contain codes for all derived measures such as AHI or TST and private codes need to be used for those until they are incorporated into the formal standard
