New FDA Guidance on Wireless Medical Devices Expected Soon

摘要

New federal guidance for wireless technology in medical devices, which is currently being developed by the FDA, is expected to detail the government's concerns over design, testing, security, electromagnetic interference, and other issues arising from the technology's increasing use in healthcare. Officials at the FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) have been voicing such concerns for a while, and the medical device field has long awaited fuller guidance from the government in wireless matters.
