Event Description

Overview:

Software pervades our lives. Likewise, the risks and vulnerabilities of software sneak into our lives. The use of software in medical devices or as a stand-alone product outpaces the FDA's ability to keep up with the technology and its uses. Software applications develop like a fountain of possibilities and leeks. There are no perfect software applications. The FDA's regulatory approach has become increasingly stringent in terms of what software developers must consider, design about and validate. Successful use requires risk analysis, particularly for factors that are really beyond the control of the software program developer and user. Using software in blind faith leads to serious trouble. Medical device software faces daily failures due to the lack of interoperability, communication technology, cybersecurity and firms' inadequate attempt to correct of prevent problems. One current example involves holding medical centers' software hostage until a ransom is paid. The Department of Justice estimates that 4000 ransom attaches happen each day. The FDA has stepped up its level of regulatory control of software on the premarket and postmarket market side. The Office of the National Coordinator for the federal government's use of software for healthcare applications is using a peculiar approach that affects what the FDA does. Software vulnerabilities and associated healthcare risks have a stronghold on patient care and lay use. The industry and the FDA find itself in a race to catch up with it.
