Clinical Trials for Software as a Medical Device (SaMD)
Navigate Clinical and Regulatory Complexities of SaMD with Confidence
What is SaMD?
Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) refers to software intended for medical use without being part of a physical hardware medical device. Examples include:
AI algorithms that assist in diagnosis or detection (e.g., radiology, dermatology, oncology)
Digital therapeutics for mental health or chronic conditions
Predictive analytics tools for hospital readmission or treatment response
Mobile health (mHealth) apps with regulated functionality
To meet global regulatory requirements, SaMD must demonstrate clinical safety, effectiveness, and performance in real-world use.
