The FDA is the world's leading
medical organization, and it is world recognition that the FDA has chosen the
Anyfusion cylinder pump as the world's best, safest and most effective infusion
pump, and has even chosen it as STeP. Paradoxically, the existing pump is not
suitable as a drug infusion pump because it has serious safety and efficacy
problems. Therefore, the FDA has a separate team (Injection Devices Team) for
special management and has recommended the development of alternative products,
but it is impossible The Anyfusion cylinder pump is the drug infusion pump
expected by the FDA and is the only drug infusion pump out of 14 items selected
as STeP. We need to submit data for FDA
510K certification and enrolment in the US insurance system, but it is not
logical and unreasonable that the cylinder cartridge is limited to selective
payment for care services above 5ml/hr, which is interpreted as logic that
5ml/hr is safe and valid, but 5ml/hr is unsafe and ineffective, so we cannot
submit data. Furthermore, it is not the role and duty of our government to
allow unsafe and ineffective equipment to be used for Korean patients and all
patients around the world. Allowing unsafe and ineffective devices to continue
to be used to administer any drug at any dose to critically ill patients is a
compromise of patient safety, health and life that should not be allowed to
continue. For this reason, it is judged
that the cylinder cartridge has the conditions to be adjusted from a selective
benefit to a general benefit (nursing benefit), and that it will be positively
reviewed as a matter of time with the addition of a more certain FDA STeP
selection. In addition, regardless of the IRA, it is judged that there will be
cooperation from the government (Health North Branch) for FDA certification and
global export to the United States. We believe that the Ministry of Health and
Welfare will make a wise decision for the safety of patients in order to
overcome the export slump and achieve $16 billion in medical device exports in
the face of poor export conditions such as IRA.
