Real World Evidence (RWE) for Medical Devices
Real-world evidence (RWE) refers to data regarding the use, effectiveness, and safety of medical products (such as drugs, biologics, and medical devices) that is derived from real-world sources, including electronic health records, claims data, patient registries, and other healthcare databases. Unlike data collected in controlled clinical trials, RWE is generated in routine clinical practice and reflects the diverse patient populations, clinical settings, and healthcare delivery systems encountered in real-world healthcare settings.
