3 3 What is the SMDA? Since December 13, 1984, the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) Medical Device Reporting (MDR) regulations have required firms who have received complaints of device malfunctions, serious injuries or deaths associated with medical devices to notify FDA of the incident. The Safe Medical Devices Act (SMDA) of 1990 provided the FDA with two additional post-marketing activities, Monitoring of products after their clearance to market and Tracking for maintaining traceability of certain devices to the user level.

4 4 What is the SMDA? Continued... The Safe Medical Devices Act (SMDA) requires healthcare professionals to report death or injuries caused or suspected to have been caused by a particular medical device to the FDA or the product's manufacturer. The goal is to quickly inform the FDA of the danger so that the issue can be tracked and/or the product recalled. The hospital must file the report within ten working days after the event is determined to be reportable. Hospitals and Physician offices are required to submit a report summary citing all device-related incidents within the last year of the previous submission.

5 5 Medical Device Defined A medical device is defined by the Safe Medical Devices Act of 1990 to include any instrument, apparatus, or other article that is used to prevent, diagnose, mitigate or treat a disease as to affect the structure or function of the body with the exception of drugs. A medical device can range from gauze sponges to implanted devices such as a pacemaker.

6 Medical Device Examples Capital Equipment cribs, bedrails, scales, wheelchairs, IV poles, infusion pumps, bathing tubs, blood pressure equipment, Radiology equipment Instruments lab equipment, surgical staplers, glucose meters, pulse oximeters Monitoring Systems cardiac, telemetry, patient call systems Reagents laboratory solutions Disposables and Accessories ventilator breathing circuits, filters needles, syringes, trocars, IV catheters, IV tubing, foley catheters, feeding tubes, gloves Implantable defibrillators, shunts, joint replacements Computerized Medical Systems hardware software versions

7 Why is reporting medical device problems important in our hospital? Reporting helps us to... Prevent future problems and protect our patients, staff, families, and visitors Achieve performance improvement goals Assist Risk Management with claims or litigation Provide information to manufacturers and/or FDA Impact the public health for the nation s patients and/or healthcare providers Effect changes in policies and procedures

8 8 What should you do if you come upon an incident that falls under the SMDA? Your role is to... Attend to the needs of the injured person. Notify your supervisor/manager and the Clinical Quality, Safety & Risk (QSR) department. Remove the device from service, put an equipment malfunction tag on it, and notify the Clinical Engineering department. Do not attempt to troubleshoot or alter any settings. Save all materials related to the incident in their original condition. If possible, save all disposables and packaging. Label items/ record serial numbers/ identification numbers. Your concerns will be investigated and the QSR department will notify the FDA via MedWatch (electronic Reporting Form 3500), if needed.
