FDA to regulate Mobile Medical Apps, seeks public input
09/17/2011
Devices once used only by medical professionals in institutions are getting smaller and cheaper and finding their way into mobile devices. Some are also going into consumer households, so the U.S. Food & Drug Administration wants to regulate them to ensure the health, safety and welfare of citizens.
On July 19, 2011 the FDA announced it is seeking input on its oversight approach for “mobile medical applications” (apps) that are designed for use on smartphones, tablets and other mobile computing devices. On September 12-13 the Agency held a workshop to clarify its intent and approach and to provide a forum for discussion. Visit this site for workshop details and how to submit comments by October 19.
