[The "Global Medical Device Nomenclature": a standard nomenclature for medical devices].
The Global Medical Device Nomenclature is the first European nomenclature available for medical devices. The purpose of a medical device nomenclature system is to facilitate identifying, medical devices. It is a registry composed by 7000 generic terms (preferred terms) for describing and identifying medical devices in an unambiguous manner. Terms are built according to pre-established rules and are assigned with a unique code and a definition. GMDN is the result of a collaborative international work own by the European community also used in USA, Japan or Australia. The main goal of GMDN is to facilitate regulatory data exchange on vigilance.
