FDA Seeks Veterans’ Views on Prosthetic Limbs at Workshop

The FDA is holding a public workshop on Oct. 31 to get feedback from veteran amputees about their experiences with prosthetic limbs.

The workshop also is intended to engage stakeholders involved in research, development, and marketing of prosthetic limbs used by veterans.

CDRH is interested in patients contributing their views, data, and resources to help improve the life cycle for medical devices, reduce adverse events, and improve communication about the risks and benefits that matter most to them. — Tamra Sami
