legislation requires that the DHHS
Secretary submit a plan to Congress for
expanding pediatric medical device
research and development. In
developing the plan, the DHHS
Secretary shall consult with individuals
and organizations with appropriate
expertise in pediatric medical devices.
The plan shall include the current status
of federally funded pediatric medical
device research; any gaps in such
research, which may include a survey of
pediatric medical providers regarding
unmet pediatric medical device needs,
as needed; and a research agenda for
improving pediatric medical device
development and Food and Drug
Administration clearance or approval of
pediatric medical devices, and
evaluating the short- and long-term
safety and effectiveness of pediatric
medical devices.
This meeting of the Interagency
Pediatric Devices Working Group,
which includes AHRQ, FDA, and NIH,
seeks to elicit feedback about expanding
pediatric device research and
development from interested
communities and the public to help
inform the plan that the DHHS Secretary
will submit in accordance with the
legislation.
The purpose of this workshop is to:
• Inform the community of the
current status of pediatric device
development;
• Describe available mechanisms for
device product registration;
• Describe available mechanisms for
pediatric device project funding;
• Understand what stakeholders see
to be important areas of study;
• Determine gaps in knowledge and
where the needs for research are; and
• Discuss ways to gather the
information needed to move ahead,
such as overcoming barriers, handling
logistics, determining classes of devices
to study, and identifying available
databases, registries, surveillance
systems.
