Laboratory partnership with the Medical Devices Agency.
To improve the quality of the information and advice provided to the Health Service, the Medical Devices Agency (MDA) is actively seeking to increase the number of reports from hospital laboratories. The Medical Devices Agency relies heavily on laboratory reports of problems with in vitro diagnostic medical devices to investigate and take action where necessary. Laboratories are encouraged to report all suspected adverse incidents to the MDA.
