According to Amac News: This organization has said that this platform is the first global open access clearinghouse for medical equipment information.
According to the World Health Organization, the platform is designed to support governments, regulators and users in making decisions about the selection, procurement and use of medical devices for the diagnosis, testing and treatment of diseases and health conditions.
The MeDevIS platform includes 2,301 types of medical devices used for a wide range of health issues including reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health, non-communicable diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, as well as infectious diseases such as COVID-19.
This is the first time that WHO has created such a global repository on medical devices, based on its experience with the WHO Priority Medical Device List (MDL), which is itself based on the experience of developing the WHO Essential Medicines List (EML).
WHO is continuously improving the MeDevIS platform, engaging multiple stakeholders and partners, and expanding it with additional technologies and devices used in various health domains, including in pandemics and emergencies.
