Public Workshop - Design and Methodology for Postmarket Surveillance Studies under Section 522 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, March 7, 2012

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing a public Workshop entitled “Design and Methodology for Postmarket Surveillance Studies under Section 522 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act.” This workshop is open to all interested parties, including professionals in the scientific community interested in advancing the infrastructure and methodology for postmarket surveillance studies.

The purpose of the workshop is to provide a forum for discussion among FDA, industry, governmental agencies, academia, clinicians and various stakeholders with experience in epidemiology, statistics, and biomedical research to advance the design and methodologies for medical device surveillance studies in the “postmarket” setting, i.e., after FDA premarket approval or clearance of the device and marketing of the device has begun.
