ISO/TS 21547:2010的目的是定义长期安全保存任何格式健康记录所需的基本原则。它专注于以前记录的特定于医疗保健的归档问题。本文还简要介绍了归档的一般原则。与传统的标准化工作方法不同，标准化工作的视角是建模、代码集和消息，本技术规范从文档管理和相关隐私保护的角度来看待归档。 在ISO/TS 21547:2010中，归档被认为是一个比选定记录的永久保存更广泛的过程。 ISO/TS 21547:2010定义了与体系结构和技术无关的安全要求，用于长期保存具有固定内容的EHR。 ISO/TS 21547:2010和一份补充技术报告ISO 21548集中于确保长期健康信息得到充分保护所需的安全要求（完整性、机密性、可用性和问责制）- 术语数字保存。本技术规范还将解决医疗环境中使用的EHR和耳鸣系统的隐私保护要求。 ISO/TS 21547:2010定义了EHR长期存档的功能安全要求，但所需的实际存档模型和技术超出了本技术规范的概念。

The purpose of ISO/TS 21547:2010 is to define the basic principles needed to securely preserve health records in any format for the long term. It concentrates on previously documented healthcare specific archiving problems. It also gives a brief introduction to the general archiving principles. Unlike the traditional approach to standardization work, where the perspective is that of modelling, code sets and messages, this Technical Specification looks at archiving from the angle of document management and related privacy protection. In ISO/TS 21547:2010 archiving is understood to be a wider process than just the permanent preservation of selected records. ISO/TS 21547:2010 defines architecture and technology-independent security requirements for long-term preservation of EHRs having fixed content. ISO/TS 21547:2010 and a complementary Technical Report, ISO 21548, concentrate on the security requirements (integrity, confidentiality, availability and accountability) necessary for ensuring adequate protection of health information in long-term digital preservation. This Technical Specification will also address privacy protection requirements for both the EHR and eArchiving systems used in the healthcare environment. ISO/TS 21547:2010 defines functional security requirements for long term archiving of EHRs, but the practical archiving models and technology required are outside the concept of this Technical Specification.
