At least 11 employees working at the #FDA's Center for Devices & Radiological #Health - which oversees #MedicalDevice reviews - have received calls since Friday saying they could return to work on Monday, acc/to 8 FDA sources…. Some of the sources were told the FDA would continue making requests to return throughout the weekend.

If the scientists agree to return, they would represent <⅓ of the staffers dismissed about a week ago. The #Trump admin had fired >1,000 FDA staffers.

After all, Abbot IS being paid for this product, whether by me or my insurer is irrelevant. So, we pay but then they take MORE???!?

This isn't Twitter, where I can live perfectly fine without using it, or I can choose to use their service in exchange for #dataveillance and #DataMining.

Abbot is pursuing supremely NOT cool corporate overreach, IMO.

Ok, going in for a cardiac MRI with multiple possible complicating factors (insulin pump, sensitive kidneys, implanted defibrillator)

This info has been discussed in multiple prep calls, and also exists in my medical records, which the imaging department has access to.

Who wants to bet whether the technicians will still be totally shocked and confused by these factors because no information ever got passed on to them?

This is a very sad and outrageous story about a successful but unprofitable #MedicalDevice where patients with retinal implants have just been abandoned after the company went bankrupt.

“These three patients, and more than 350 other blind people around the world with Second Sight’s implants in their eyes, find themselves in a world in which the technology that transformed their lives is just another obsolete gadget.“ 1/4

New paper on the UK’s approach to regulating #AI enabled #medicaldevice

AI and Digital Health need innovative, and "Better regulation": what are the options and how are the EU, the US and, particularly the UK, approaching this challenge

#Trustworthy autonomous systems: governance and regulation project

jmir.org/2023/1/e43682?fbclid=

Journal of Medical Internet ResearchLearning From Experience and Finding the Right Balance in the Governance of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Health TechnologiesArtificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning medical tools have the potential to be transformative in care delivery; however, this change will only be realized if accompanied by effective governance that ensures patient safety and public trust. Recent digital health initiatives have called for tighter governance of digital health. A correct balance must be found between ensuring product safety and performance while also enabling the innovation needed to deliver better approaches for patients and affordable efficient health care for society. This requires innovative, fit-for-purpose approaches to regulation. Digital health technologies, particularly AI-based tools, pose specific challenges to the development and implementation of functional regulation. The approaches of regulatory science and “better regulation” have a critical role in developing and evaluating solutions to these problems and ensuring effective implementation. We describe the divergent approaches of the European Union and the United States in the implementation of new regulatory approaches in digital health, and we consider the United Kingdom as a third example, which is in a unique position of developing a new post-Brexit regulatory framework.

Full disclaimer re: automated newsletter --

And remember, while I gave them some general guidelines, articles shared are selected by 100 chimpanzees working on typewriters. Eventually, they'll reproduce the collected works of William Shakespeare. But sometimes they do dumb stuff.

I’m the Chief Compliance and Privacy Officer at a #medicaldevice company. Anything you read here is shared by the algorithms/ chimpanzees and me, not by my employer.

I’ve been thinking and writing about health care, #healthpolicy, innovation, digital health, #healthdata and more for a very long time.

Finally, please pardon any ads you may run across. Some of them are really silly.
