Title: Keynote: The Surface Pressure of Medical Device Design: Navigating Legal and Ethical Pitfalls in Privacy, Security, and Inclusivity
Description:
As part of the healthcare digitization process, medical devices and connected health solutions have become a common staple in most healthcare institutions and are used by a vast majority of patients to monitor and track their care virtually. With a projected valuation of $151 billion by 2027, the global connected health and wellness device market is poised for substantial growth, with the potential to transform patient care and reduce healthcare costs. However, the legal and ethical challenges facing medical device engineers, founders, and companies today are more complex than before the Covid-19 pandemic, with many companies struggling to understand the privacy, security, and inclusivity landscape, obligations, and best practices. This keynote delves into the world of health IT for medical devices, with a focus on helping companies understand the impact that emerging federal and state laws will have on their business models and how to develop effective compliance and risk mitigation strategies. This presentation further explores the harms and inequities that may result from the device design process and the increasing use of artificial intelligence – particularly for underserved populations – through the use of femtech case studies.
