Comparative Study
User reporting of medical device related incidents
Med Device Technol.
2003 May.
Abstract
In many countries, health-care professionals are required to notify relevant authorities about certain incidents that can be linked to properties, performance and usability issues of medical devices. This study examines whether the user-reporting scheme could add to the information that is already available from manufacturer incident reports.
