IT Services for Medical Device and SaMD Providers
Since 2005, ScienceSoft has been helping medical device and SaMD providers engineer robust solutions that are ready for FDA clearance and CE marking.
Medical Device Software ScienceSoft Delivers
Software in a medical device (SiMD)
Software that is integral to a medical device and performs functions like processing data or controlling hardware. Requires FDA clearance.
Sample use cases:
- Device control and image viewing software for ultrasound scanners.
- Image processing and visualization software for MRI.
Software accessories for medical devices
Software complementing or enhancing medical devices but not performing a medical function on its own. Requires FDA clearance.
Sample use cases:
- Remote monitoring systems.
- Remote control software for smart therapeutic devices (e.g., insulin pens, smart inhalers).
- Medication adherence monitoring (e.g., via integration with smart pill bottles).
Software as a Medical Device (SaMD)
Software that can diagnose, monitor, or support clinical decisions without a physical medical device. Requires FDA clearance.
Sample use cases:
- AI-powered treatment and patient care planning.
- Medical image analysis (e.g., for stroke type identification, brain tumor localization).
- Direct disease management (e.g., sleep apnea episode identification, sound therapy for tinnitus patients).
Other software around medical devices
Software supporting operational tasks for use cases not related to diagnosing and treatment. Doesn’t require FDA clearance.
Sample use cases:
- Hospital asset monitoring.
- Scheduling patients for device-based procedures.
