FDA Presentation on Classification of Software

John Murray of FDA gave a presentation on March 18, 2009 at the AAMI Standards Conference discussing determination of what software is a medical device, how such software is classified, and whether pre market submissions are required or the quality system regulation applies. Many examples are given including Electronic Medical Record systems, medication reminder systems and many others. In some cases such systems have been submitted via 510(k)s even where FDA policy on is not clear.
