Work Groups AIDC Application Standards Work Group The Automatic Identification & Data Capture (AIDC) Application Standards work group is developing global standards for the automatic identification and data capture for Healthcare products at all packaging levels. The work team has already developed GTIN Allocation Rules for Healthcare, defined data requirements (including serialisation) and carrier requirements for automatic identification. The AIDC Application Standards for small instruments have also been approved; Phase 1 (covering about 80% of Healthcare products) is currently being finalised. Traceability in Healthcare Work Group The Traceability in Healthcare work group is developing a suite of global standards to enable full actionable visibility of all pharmaceuticals and medical devices from point-of-production to point-of-use, which can be used globally. The Global Traceability Standard for Healthcare (GTSH) Issue 1.0.0 was approved and published in February 2009 and provides a process standard describing the traceability process independent from the choice of enabling technologies, defining minimum requirements for all stakeholders, organisations and countries and the corresponding GS1 Standards to be used in combination with information management tools. The GTSH Implementation Guide was published in April 2009. A work team is now further developing a suite of Global Standards that enable Traceability in Healthcare (including process standard(s) and technical standards) by mid-2010. Healthcare Data Synchronisation & Product Classification Work Group The Healthcare Data Synchronisation work group is developing a global standard to enable healthcare stakeholders to leverage the GS1 Global Data Synchronisation Network (GDSN), ensuring accurate and consistent data exchange between all supply chain partners. A global GDSN Pilot was successfully completed in 2008 showing that the GDSN infrastructure is in place to enable cross-border data synchronisation. A Global GDSN Implementation Initiative was successfully launched in May 2009. The GDSN Extension for Healthcare is planned to be created by Q3 2009. A long term recommendation for product classification is also being developed. Public Policy Work Team The Public Policy work team provides leadership in the conduct and interaction with global public policy makers / government authorities to influence the movement towards harmonisation of product identification requirements in alignment with GS1 Global Standards. The work team also provides a forum for open exchange of information between end-user members on global public policy developments, monitors the global landscape of laws, regulations, directives, etc., around the topics of healthcare product identification, data synchronisation and traceability, and establishes a framework and repository of global regulations and directives related to Healthcare Product identification as a reference for membership.

H1N1 Influenza

Protect yourself and others from catching influenza A(H1N1) Recommendations by the World Health Organisation

The main route of transmission of the new influenza A(H1N1) virus seems to be similar to seasonal influenza, via droplets that are expelled by speaking, sneezing or coughing. You can prevent getting infected by avoiding close contact with people who show influenza-like symptoms (trying to maintain a distance of about 1 metre if possible) and taking the following measures:

- avoid touching your mouth and nose; - clean hands thoroughly with soap and water, or cleanse them with an alcohol-

based hand rub on a regular basis (especially if touching the mouth and nose, or surfaces that are potentially contaminated);

- avoid close contact with people who might be ill; - reduce the time spent in crowded settings if possible; - improve airflow in your living space by opening windows; - practise good health habits including adequate sleep, eating nutritious food, and

keeping physically active. If you are not sick you do not have to wear a mask. If you feel unwell, have high fever, cough or sore throat:

- keep away from work, school or crowds; - rest and take plenty of fluids; - cover your nose and mouth when coughing and sneezing and, if using tissues,

make sure you dispose of them carefully. Clean your hands immediately after with soap and water or cleanse them with an alcohol-based hand rub;

- if you do not have a tissue close by when you cough or sneeze, cover your mouth as much as possible with the crook of your elbow;

- use a mask to help you contain the spread of droplets when you are around others, but be sure to do so correctly;

Only a medical practitioner and local health authority can confirm a case of influenza A(H1N1).
