Resumen de FDA Lays Out Rules for Regulating Mobile Medical Apps
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued its final guidance for developers of mobile medical apps being used on smartphones, tablets, and other devices for a variety of health-related tasks, from tracking an individual�s fitness to wireless remote control of computed tomography machines.
The FDA, citing industry estimates, said that 500 million smartphone users worldwide will use a health care app by 2015. Some predict apps will allow physicians to diagnose patients with potentially life-threatening conditions outside of traditional health care settings and help individuals manage their health and wellness and gain access to useful information whenever and wherever they need it.
