Device Registries In Asia-Pacific/MENA Needed As Focus On Real-World Data Grows

Executive Summary

Device industry groups are urging manufacturers and contract research organizations to get involved with an initiative to build medical device registries in Asia, the Middle East and North Africa, as regulators and reimbursement bodies in these regions increasingly focus on real-world data. They say stakeholders would be able to collaboratively assess this kind of data before any decisions were taken that could affect patient access to therapies.
