Medical devices include a wide range of tools designed to prevent, diagnose, or treat #health conditions. In the field of home-based rehabilitation, solutions like ARC, our medical device for #telerehabilitation, are transforming patient support by enabling remote recovery and functional maintenance. Each medical device has a specific “intended purpose” defined by the manufacturer and regulated under the European Medical Device Regulation (#MDR 2017/745).This regulation ensures devices like ARC are safe, effective, and used in compliance with current regulations.

This Editorial discusses the limitations of current postmarket surveillance systems for medical devices, highlighting the case of inferior vena cava filters (IVCFs). https://ja.ma/3YS9ySp

It is not just with artificial intelligence-enabled medical devices that the FDA 510(k) process raises issues. Legacy devices, like inferior vena cava filters which have been used for prevention of pulmonary embolism (PE) since the 1960s and have been approved without requiring demonstration of clinical effectiveness (eg, reduced risk for subsequent PE or PE-related death), also have important gaps in post-marketing surveillance (PMS) about the persistence of risks and benefits. There is still a lack of ability to conduct large-scale, routine medical device safety evaluations repeatedly over the product life cycle, because of gaps in health systems electronic health records (eHR), for example. For the eHR digital transition, standardization is key. https://lnkd.in/gKSdcRUj
