The Hospital Perspective: Lessons on UDI Implementation at the Point of Care
Add bookmark
The task of realizing advantages from deploying UDIs for medical devices stands as a vast project, with the practical challenges of efficient and compliant implementation looming large.
Some of the implementation roadblocks that confront and hinder today’s hospitals include:
- Bar codes not being well printed
- Unreliable bar codes
- Superfluous labels on a device, mostly intended for the manufacturer’s use that drown out the label of interest for the hospital.
