WHO – MeDevIS platform announced to boost access to medical technologies and devices (Catapult’s regulatory round-up – July 2024)
WHO has created a medical device database to encourage data consistency across borders. An online platform, called MeDevIS (Medical Devices Information System) is the first global open access clearing house for information on medical devices. It is designed to support governments, regulators, and users in their decision-making on selection, procurement, and use of medical devices for diagnostics, testing and treatment of diseases and health conditions. MeDevIS references two international naming systems for medical devices – the European Medical Device Nomenclature (EMDN), mostly used in European countries for registration in the European database, and the Global Medical Device Nomenclature (GMDN) used in regulatory agencies in Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and the USA and other Member States.
