User reporting of medical device related incidents

Harri Sievänen. 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.
