Celebrating five years of impact at DiMe: Thank you for your contributions

Work with DiMe on an upcoming project

Using patient-generated health data in medical device development: Case examples of implementation throughout the total product life cycle

DiMe and FDA are working to identify successful practices for using patient-generated health data (PGHD) and driving adoption of its use throughout the total product life cycle (TPLC).

We conducted a two-day public workshop – featuring nearly 45 speakers and 2,000 attendees – to explore the implementation of PGHD during medical device development and clinical studies. Insights from the workshop will now be used to develop a roadmap for using PGHD in TPLC and provide a vision for the future with better trials, health products, and regulatory science.

Developing new resources

DiMe and FDA will use the information and insights shared during the public meeting to:
Gather case examples to demonstrate how PGHD can be implemented throughout the total product life cycle (TPLC).
Explore ways to use PGHD to help advance remote clinical trial data collection and support clinical outcome assessments
Demonstrate how PGHD can highlight the patient voice in the medical device ecosystem

They will also develop a roadmap for the use of PGHD in medical device TPLC and provide a vision for the future with:
  • Better trials: Data from diverse participants by building trust and centering the patient voice

  • Better health products: Medical device development inspired and informed by patient experience

  • Better regulatory science: Consistent and meaningful patient-centered health measures, measurement standards for product authorization
