| dc.description.abstract | It is time for the pediatric community, along with the FDA and the device industry, to renew efforts to better provide appropriately evaluated devices and diagnostic tests for children. This will require seriously considering incentives and/or funding for pediatric trials, improving insurance coverage to reimburse for device use, and creative approaches to the evaluation process in children. In the meantime, the FDA should work to better communicate the device and diagnostic test regulatory process to the public and physicians, and make clear to pediatricians to what extent specific diagnostic tests and devices have and have not been evaluated in children. | en_US |
