What does SMDA stand for?

Safe Medical Devices Act Safe Medical Device Act Safe Medical Data Act Secure Medical Devices Act

Correct Answer:

Safe Medical Devices Act

Explanation:

The key idea is to recognize regulatory acronyms and what they stand for. SMDA stands for Safe Medical Devices Act, the U.S. law enacted in 1990 to strengthen the FDA’s oversight of medical devices after they reach the market. It expands postmarket surveillance by requiring reporting of adverse device-related deaths and serious injuries and gives the FDA authority to mandate recalls when necessary. The other options change a word (Data vs Devices) or use a different term (Secure) and do not reflect the actual title of the legislation.
