As part of the efforts to promote development of medical electronic device industry in the country, DeitY has also taken up activity of developing standards for medical electronic devices. As a step in this direction, DeitY has proposed that technical committees be set up for the formulation of standards for capsule endoscope, biochemistry analyser and HBA1C.
Bureau of Indian Standards, the nodal agency of Government of India for standards has been requested to do the needful in this regard. Readers may suggest other medical electronic devices for which standards are presently not there and DeitY would take up setting up of standards for those devices as well.
