Posted Discussion Paper and Agenda for Public Workshop – Physiological Closed-Loop Controlled Devices, October 13

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing a public Workshop entitled “Physiological Closed-Loop Controlled (PCLC) Devices.” The topic to be discussed is challenges related to the design, development, and evaluation of critical care PCLC devices. FDA considers PCLC devices an emerging technology and aims to hold a workshop focusing on design, development and performance evaluation of PCLC systems intended for use in critical care environments. Such devices include closed-loop anesthetic delivery, closed-loop vasoactive drug and fluid delivery, and closed-loop mechanical ventilation.

(CORRECTION: The docket will remain open and accept comments until November 13, 2015. The link for submitting comments is http://www.regulations.gov and docket # is: FDA-2015-N-2734.)
