Medical Device Category

AMIA recommends a more thorough breakdown of the Medical Devices Data Class. For medical devices, there should be a distinguishment between permanent versus temporary data classes. Temporary devices for example PICC line, indwelling foley and suprapubic catheters, and wound vacs. Medical applications should also be included as they are considered medical digital devices, such as digital therapeutics, standard languages, payor exchanges, what is included and excluded in this category.
