The medical device/technology standards environment is a sprawling network of stakeholders whose shared goal is to write standards that advance patient safety and ultimately public health. International standards development organizations (SDOs) conduct their work with strict attention to transparency, precision and care; however, medical device standards do not always meet their intended promise because they often do not take all stakeholders’ needs into consideration.
The World Medical Device Standards Congress is an invitation-only event that will bring together key leaders across medical device/technology standards committees, industry, regulators and SDOs to discuss how to optimize standards and put them to work more effectively on behalf of regulatory science and medical device safety and performance. The intention is to enhance communication and cooperation across our community and increase the usability and impact of medical device standards.
