Summary Purpose Medical device interoperability in operating rooms (OR) provides advantages for both, patients and physicians.
Several approaches were made to provide standards for successful device integration. However, with high heterogeneity of
standards in the market, device vendors may reject these approaches. The aim of this work is therefore to provide a proof of
concept for the connection of two promising integration solutions OR.NET and SCOT to increase vendor interest.
Methods The connection of devices between both domains is targeted by implementing an application to map device
capabilities between the IEEE 11073 SDC and ORiN standards. Potential properties of the respective architectures are defined.
The connection was evaluated by latency measurements in a demonstrator setup utilizing an OR light as an exemplary device.
Results The latency measurements resulted in a similar transmission speed of the GATOR (53.0 ms) and direct SDC-to-SDC
(38.0 ms) communication. Direct proprietary ORiN-to-ORiN communication was faster in any case (8.0 ms).
Conclusion A connection between both standards was successfully achieved via the GATOR application. The results show
comparable magnitudes of the communication between the standards compared to the direct standard-internal communication.
