FDA Seeking Comments on Use of Identifier System for Medical Devices
August 10, 2006
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is seeking information on how the use of a unique identifier system for medical devices may reduce medical errors, facilitate device recalls and improve medical device adverse event reporting. The agency is seeking public comment for the next 90 days. The comments will be used to help the agency determine what next steps the agency should take related to a unique device identifier (UDI) system for medical devices. "Much like the bar code rule for drugs and biological products, unique identifiers for medical devices could have many potential benefits for improving the quality of care for patients," said Daniel Schultz, M.D., Director, Center for Devices and Radiological Health, FDA. "A unique device identifier system could have broad applications in reducing medical errors, facilitating device recalls, improving medical device adverse event reporting and encouraging cost effectiveness by improving delivery and supply chain efficiency."
