<H3>Special Instructions</H3><p> <p>This tests a DOR  that has the ability to send messages to multiple DOCs. It is a redundant test  of the ability of the DOC to receive messages containing data for one or more  patients. The test verifies the ability for a DOR to send multiple messages (or  a DOR supporting only VSMs to send messages) to multiple DOCs. Messages contain  data with multiple physiological parameters for two patients (or only a single  patient if multiple patients are not supported). If your system does not  support multiple patients, you need to make this known to your test partners  and the project manager.</p> <p>  The DOR must  coordinate this test with multiple DOCs. The sending system is responsible for  making sure each of the receiving systems can receive and display at least a  minimum set of four parameters <em>in advance  of the Connectathon.</em> </p> <p>  There are three  variations of this test; be sure you select the right one(s):</p> <ul>     <li>DEC_One_to_Many_Communication_RC</li>     <ul>      <li>DOR  and two or more DOCs </li>      <li>DOR  with DOF in the same system, testing the DOR function and not the DOF; the DOC  does not use the query function to request filtered data </li>     </ul>     <li>DEC_One_to_Many_Communication_FC </li>     <ul>      <li>DOR  with DOF in the same system, testing the DOF function and not the DOR; the DOC provides  the query function to request filtered data </li>     </ul>     <li>DEC_One_to_Many_Communication_RFC&nbsp;&nbsp; </li>     <ul>      <li>Standalone DOF tests the output side to  verify the ability to respond to two or more DOCs </li>     </ul> </ul> <p>NOTE: If  the system is a DOF in the same system as a DOR, then the DOF must test with multiple  DOCs. </p> <p>  NOTE: A test with one or multiple standalone DOFs (and  possibly DOCs) receiving messages from a single DOR is considered redundant because  the standalone DOF in that case looks like a DOC to the DOR.</p> <p>NOTE:  The DEC_One_to_Many_Communication _RFC test is appropriate for a standalone  DOF that relies upon a DOR for data and sends messages to multiple DOCS. </p> <p>NOTE: Test names are the same for DORs, DOFs and  DOCs. They play partner roles and DORs are responsible for coordinating with  their partners <em>in advance of the  Connectathon</em> to assure that the required number of DOCs needed are able to  receive the messages they will send.</p> <p>RELATED TESTS:</p> <p>If two or more DORs are available at the time of the test, they may coordinate their effort and conduct the DEC_Many_To_One test simultaneously.</p> </p><H3>Description</H3><p> <p>Conduct  DEC_One_to_One_Communication testing before proceeding.</p>     <p>  This test applies  to systems that transmit multiple messages for the same patient or patients AND  to a gateway that transmits only one set of parameters for one or more patients  (e.g., vital signs monitor). This test applies only to DORs that send messages to  multiple DOFs or DOCs; in this case we test with DOCs.</p>     <ol>      <li>A  DOR sends a series of messages to two or more DOCs. Messages include at least two  patients (if multiple patients are supported) and multiple physiological  parameters. Parameters include sampled continuous parameters (e.g., heart rate  and blood pressure) if supported, or VSM data if that is the only data type  supported. Messages <strong>need not include</strong> relatively infrequently measured parameters (e.g., NIBP). For DOFs that are  part of a DOR/DOF system also must test the DOF option in DEC_One_to_Many_Communication_FC. </li>      <li>Messages  will alternate between the two patients. I.e., a message for patient #1 is  followed by a message for patient #2 before another message is sent for patient  #1. Messages should not be closer in time than 30 seconds apart. A minimum of  two messages consistent with the subscription request are received.</li>     </ol>     <p>Sending systems send  the same messages to two or more DOCs.</p> </p><p>PATIENT IDENTIFICATION:</p><p>For systems NOT using PAM or PDQ to obtain patient demographics, the patients for this test in    January 2008 are given below. Additional patients can be created using the same pattern.</p><table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">     <tr>      <td width="133" valign="top">       <p align="center">        <strong>System</strong>       </p>      </td>     <td width="91" valign="top">       <p align="center">        <strong>MRD</strong>       </p>      </td>     <td width="61" valign="top">       <p align="center">        <strong>First Name</strong>       </p>      </td>     <td width="67" valign="top">       <p align="center">        <strong>Last Name</strong>       </p>      </td>     <td width="127" valign="top">       <p align="center">        <strong>Location</strong>       </p>      </td>     <td width="79" valign="top">       <p align="center">        <strong>Mother&rsquo;s Maiden Name</strong>       </p>      </td>     <td width="73" valign="top">       <p align="center">        <strong>DOB</strong>       </p>      </td>     </tr>     <tr>      <td width="133" valign="top">       <p>&nbsp;
