9 Slide 9 A UDI Primer Elizabeth Sinclair, BarTender by Seagull Scientific

10 10 Slide 10 Why UDI? Patient safety, visibility and analytics. Uniform system for identifying and cataloging medical devices Intended to improve reporting and enhance electronic tracking. Before UDI, analysis of device effectiveness and adverse event reporting was limited by the fact that specific devices used in treatment were often not known or not identified with adequate specificity. Standardized labeling and use of AIDC data carriers Before UDI, many medical devices lacked labels that could be automatically be scanned into electronic records systems, causing error-prone manual entry and incomplete recording of device details. Common product naming Without a common vocabulary for medical devices, meaningful analysis based on data from existing voluntary systems has been difficult. Reliable and consistent identification of medical devices will enable safety surveillance so that the FDA and manufacturers can better identify potential problems or device defects and improve patient care.

11 11 Medical Devices are Classified by Risk Level FDA Device Classification Examples Classification Risk Level Device Examples I II III Low Moderate High Tongue depressors, manual stethoscopes, dental floss, elastic bandages, examination gloves, nonprescription sunglasses. Electrical stethoscopes, electrocardiographs, dental cement, gas analyzers, x-ray systems, powered wheel chairs, fetal cardiac monitors. Implantable pacemakers, replacement heart valves, automated external defibrillators, heart pumps. Life Supporting / Life Sustaining is an additional flag for a device in any class, indicating a device that is essential to, or that yields information that is essential to the restoration or continuation of a bodily function important to the continuation of human life. Slide 11

12 12 Slide 12 FDA compliance schedule Implants, Life Supporting, Life Sustaining (All Dates are Sept 24 th ) Packaging ALL Devices Class 3 Class 2 Class 1 + Direct Part Mark For Reprocessed & Reused Class 3 Class 2 Class

13 13 What is UDI? FDA Regulation requiring: All medical devices must be assigned a unique identification number. This is the Device Identifier (DI) All medical devices must be registered in a federal FDA database All labels on devices and device packaging must include mandatory data elements printed in human readable form AND machine readable form (typically a bar code) Law applies to every medical device sold or distributed in the US, regardless of where it is manufactured. Slide 13

14 Barcode formats GS1 and HIBCC Same information, different formats 14 Slide 14

15 No mandatory symbology format 15 Slide 15

16 GUDID Required Data Fields 16 Slide 16

17 Required Label Data Elements Device Identifier (DI) Globally Unique, Static Identification number Must be Registered in the FDA Database Linked to a Single Manufacturer, Device Name, Model, and Packaging Level Linked to a Set of Static Product Attributes Production Identifier (PI) Describes one or more value(s) that tie to Production Lot, Production Date, Expiration Date, Serial #, etc. NOT registered in the FDA Database Both elements must be on the label in both human-readable and AIDC-readable format. (* PI is optional for Class I devices with UPC) Machine-readable format is not mandated could be barcode, RFID, or some other technology. 17 Slide 17

18 18 Slide 18 It s a little more complicated than that medical device label elements

19 Slide 19 From data to device Data sources Software Substrates and marking technologies Verification

20 From data to device: Data sources Slide 20

21 21 Slide 21 Gathering the Required Product Data Manufacturers must find and organize the required product information. Often, information doesn t exist or is scattered across multiple sites, servers and paper documents. Must be done at corporate level, but down to each SKU this is a challenge for companies that have grown by acquisition. Distinctions must be made between repair parts, accessories, kits, etc. Many companies do not have Product Data Systems Often there are conflicting data and no clear owner

30 Global Trade Item Number Anatomy Slide 30

31 Sample package label Unit of use label must bear a unique device identifier, (UDI) in both human readable and AIDC, (bar code) machine readable format Format of dates provided on a medical device label Slide 31

32 Slide 32 ISO / ANSI X3.182 Bar Code Quality GS1 bar code verification requirements are based on bar code print quality specifications of global ISO IEC 15416, Bar code Print Quality Test Specification and North American ANSI X3.182, Bar Code Print Quality Guideline, standards. Both standards harmoniously recognize that an acceptance criterion for bar code quality is 1.5/C or better.

33 Slide 33 ISO / ANSI X3.182 Bar Code Quality Bar code verification equipment must provide specifications in overall bar code print quality based on eight parameters defined in ISO and ANSI X The eight parameters of ISO / ANSI X3.182 single Scan Reflectance Profile, SRP are graded as follows: Parameters of a Bar code Scan Reflectance Profile Decode Minimum Reflectance (Rmin) Edge Contrast Minimum (ECmin) Edge Determination Symbol Contrast (SC) Modulation (MOD) Defects Decodability Quality Determination Pass/Fail X X X X Quality Determination Graded 4.0 (A) through 0.00 (F) X X X X

50 Slide 50 Eight Important Questions For Providers 1. Are our systems and people ready to consume this data? 2. How will we prepare our business practices for change? 3. Are our internal systems (financial, clinical and materials) ready to accept and share this data? 4. What will our costs be? 5. Do we have a long-term plan and budget? 6. Is our connectivity in place to receive the data? 7. How will our systems, people, and processes be prepared for the transition? 8. What is our timeline for conversion?

51 Slide 51 MATERIALS MANAGEMENT IN HEALTH CARE November 2009 Eight Years Later the Questions are the Same

52 Impediments To Adoption Variation in UDI Bar Code Application Three Issuing agency standards Multiple UDI Bar Code Formats and Arrangements Unrelated Bar Codes on Packaging UDI Bar Code(s) are often not differentiated Confusion around what to Scan Direct mark readability Very small Bar Codes Slide 52

53 Slide 53 Bar Code Formats: Different, but Fully Compatible HIBCC GS1 Device Identifier (DI) Production Identifier (PI)

63 Summary Minimal Mandates on Providers: UDI must be included in adverse event reports Certified EHR vendors must accommodate UDI field capture and include in Common Clinical Data Set. Hospitals must use Certified EHR technology capable of documenting UDIs for implants. The Rest is Up-Side Opportunity UDIs unlock multiple opportunities for better patient care, improved inventory management, error reduction, and clinician time savings. Technology providers are working to help you successfully capture the benefits. Slide 63
