1 Scope
This Recommendation specifies the capability framework for support of the requirements of e-health
monitoring (EHM) services [ITU-T Y.2065].
The scope of this Recommendation includes:
– EHM conceptual framework

– EHM capability framework
An overview of the EHM capabilities in the various EHM components is provided in Annex A.

Two EHM service deployment technical scenarios are described in Appendix I.
