If your company is developing or manufacturing a medical device, it may be required to have testing according to AAMI Consensus Standards. The Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation® (AAMI) is a nonprofit organization that is focused on the management and development of safe health technology. AAMI is the primary source of both national and international consensus standards for the medical device industry. AAMI provides support and guidance for healthcare professionals, and standards intended to enhance the safety, efficacy, and proper management of medical devices and health technologies.
AAMI leads global collaboration in the development, management, and use of safe and effective health technology including the following:
- To improve patient care by advancing the safety and effectiveness of health technology.
- Information sharing.
- Ethical and professional standards.
- Encouraging collaborations.
- Quality.
