Adverse Event Terminology

The purpose of this working group is to:

• establish IMDRF adverse event terminology including terms for medical device malfunction, evaluation result/conclusion, patient/user outcome, and part/component of a medical device
• support the implementation and the use of the terminology through the provision of guidance documents and training materials
• improve, harmonize and where necessary expand the terminology and systems being used to code information relating to medical device adverse events.
