Medical Device Innovation Consortium (MDIC)

We are thrilled to announce distinguished keynote speakers for MDIC's Annual Public Forum this September. Following the tremendous success of last year's sold-out event, #APF2024 is a must-attend learning and networking opportunity for stakeholders in MedTech and across the healthcare ecosystem. Featured Keynotes: Dr. Robert Califf, Commissioner, U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), brings a wealth of experience and insight from his service as Commissioner of the FDA. His dedication to enhancing public health through regulatory science and innovation has been instrumental in advancing modern healthcare. As the Director of the Coverage and Analysis Group at CMS, Tamara Syrek Jensen has been a pivotal figure in developing evidence-based national coverage policies. Her work ensures timely access to cutting-edge services and technologies for Medicare beneficiaries. Register today to join these visionary keynotes this September 10-11 at #APF2024 in Washington DC: https://lnkd.in/eb6BwD3j #medicare #healthcare #healthequity #womenshealth #medtech #medicaldevice #medicaldeviceevents #FDA #coverage #healthtech

The MDIC Board of Directors was pleased to host medical device executives from across Minneapolis and beyond last week at The Hewing Hotel. The MDIC and Medical Alley networks converged to share in an evening of engaging with old friends and making new connections as the organizations raised up common goals and explored the potential for deeper partnerships. Remarks were offered by MDIC President & CEO Andrew Fish, MDIC Board Chair Chip Hance, Medical Alley's Michael Morton, and FDA CDRH Director and MDIC Board Member Dr. Jeff Shuren, highlights of which included various takes on the origin story of MDIC as being born in the back of a shared cab ride on the way to the Minneapolis airport. #Innovation #MedicalDevices #PatientSafety

How can #patient preference information (PPI) enhance #clinicaltrial design for heart failure patients? In October of 2018, MDIC’s Science of Patient Input (SPI) Heart Failure Working Group launched a PPI study to quantify heart failure patients’ willingness to accept device-related risks in exchange for potential improvements in health outcomes. The overarching objective was to develop a methodology by which #patientpreferences could be incorporated into clinical trial design for future HF devices.

In October 2018, MDIC’s Science of Patient Input (SPI) Heart Failure Working Group initiated a groundbreaking patient preference information (PPI) study. Thier goal? To quantify how willing heart failure (HF) patients are to accept device-related risks in exchange for potential health improvements. This initiative aims to develop methodologies that integrate patient preferences into the #clinicaltrial design for future HF devices, ensuring that #patientvoices are at the forefront of medical #innovation.
