FDA’s Enforcements for Mobile Medical Applications

Overview:

Information provided will allow an attendee to determine if their App is a medical device, and if it is, determine the regulatory obligations the App will carry. Guidance will also be provided as to adjusting the intended use claims for an App that might take it out of the definition of a medical device. Recommendations will be provided for getting started with medical device regulations if your App is a medical device.

Why should you attend: Software developers may be creating software Apps that meet the definition of a medical device according to the Food, Drug and Cosmetics Act. Medical device software Apps are subject to medical device regulations and the software must be developed to meet the FDA’s Quality System Regulation requirements. Failure to do so may result in your App being recalled from the market.

Areas Covered in the Session:

  • Legal definition of a medical device
  • How product claims and capabilities bring an App under the medical device definition
  • Adjusting product claims and features to take a product out of medical device regulatory obligations
  • FDA’s Mobile Medical Apps guidance
  • FDA enforcement discretion of Mobile Medical Apps
  • Regulatory obligations for software Apps that are medical devices
  • Getting started with medical device regulations if your App is a medical device

Who Will Benefit:
  • Software developers creating mobile software applications for healthcare or health maintenance
  • Hospital IT managers overseeing development of healthcare software applications
  • Cloud IT managers hosting Apps that might be medical devices
