Evaluation of digital medical devices: How to take into account the specificities of these solutions? Therapie 2024; 79:137-150.

Abstract
The beginning of the 21st century has seen an increasing number of digital medical devices (DMDs) arrive on the European market, bringing major benefits and changes for society. DMDs are unique in that they bring intelligence to the organisation of care, and generate and collect a wealth of real-life data with ultra-fast life cycles. They have specific requirements, particularly in terms of data security and interoperability. In France and Europe, the construction of evidence, the assessment process and evaluation methodologies with a view to purchase or reimbursement must adjust to these changes, given the specific features of these technologies. This digital leap has opened up new perspectives for healthcare, along with economic, ethical and regulatory issues. The challenge is to assess the clinical and organisational impact, reliability, safety, interoperability, efficiency and budgetary impact of DMDs in line with the requirements of new standards, guidelines and regulations. This should result in a coherent, pragmatic and proportionate evaluation, so that public decision-makers and buyers can take advantage of the potential opportunities that these digital devices offer to improve healthcare delivery. Thus, a fair and informed evaluation of DMDs would emerge, providing a solid basis to steer their inclusion into contemporary medical practices. This fundamental issue of evaluation, linked to the digital nature of these MDs, is what the round table, comprising experts from academia and/or hospitals, institutions and industry, sought to resolve. Discussions led to proposals on how DMDs should be evaluated, bearing in mind their complexity. The round table set out to identify the bottlenecks in the entire evaluation process, from the CE marking phase, compliance with French safety and interoperability requirements, through to national or local evaluation, in order to inform a purchasing policy and draw up proposals covering the entire spectrum. Ten concrete recommendations were put forward by the round table, aimed at improving the evaluation process by making it clearer and more adaptable, thus offering greater flexibility in the evaluation and decision-making stages. This well-thought-out approach is designed to facilitate a comprehensive and flexible evaluation of DMDs given the constantly evolving technological context.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Organizational aspect is rarely considered in healthcare. However, it is gradually seen as one of the key aspects of the decision-making process as well as clinical and economic dimensions. Our primary objective was to identify criteria already used to assess the organizational impact of medical innovations. Our secondary objective was to structure them into an inventory to support decision-makers to select the relevant criteria for their complex decision-making issues. MATERIALS AND METHODS A search using the Medline database was conducted in June 2019. The records published between January, 1990 and December, 2018 were identified. The publications cited by the authors of the included articles and the websites of health technology assessment agencies, units or learned societies identified during the search were also consulted. The identified criteria were structured in an inventory. RESULTS We selected 107 records of a wide range of evidence mostly published after the 2000s. We identified 636 criteria that we classified into five categories: people, task, structure, technology, and surroundings. CONCLUSION Criteria selection is a crucial step in any multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA). This work is the first step in the development of a validated MCDA method to assess the organizational impact of medical innovations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The Medical Device Committee (CODIMS) evaluates all innovative medical devices (MD) before their introduction in the hospitals of the Assistance publique-hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP). At the national level, the Medical Device and Health Technology Evaluation Committee (CNEDiMTS) provides recommendation for MD with respects to reimbursement by the National Health Insurance Fund. The aim of this study is to compare the recommendations of both committees and to analyze their timing on a six-year period. MATERIAL AND METHOD We selected all innovative MD assessed by the CODIMS between 2013 and 2018. We retrieved all the recommendations for these MD from the CNEDiMTS. We performed quantitative and qualitative analysis of data collected. RESULTS On 30 innovative MD assessed by both the CODIMS and the CNEDiMTS, 11 (37%) evaluations were performed by the CODIMS before the CNEDiMTS evaluation. They occurred approximately a year before the CNEDiMTS recommendation (an average of 378 days). Among the 25 MD with a recommendation of both committees, the two opinions were consistent in 88 per cent of all cases. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION This study highlights that there is a good consistency between the recommendations of both committees. This suggests that the MD evaluations conducted at the hospital level are relevant and timely. Finally, a better coordination between the national and local levels should be promoted for the MD assessment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Identify the training profile and the published evidences about the roles and the impacts of hospital pharmacists in medical devices. METHODS A literature review was conducted using Google, Google Scholar and Pubmed for 1990-2016 associated with a manual search conducted in three non-indexed pharmaceutical journals for 2000-2016. RESULTS The analysis of training programs available did not allow us to identify a specific training profile. A total of 72 articles related to the roles and the impacts of the pharmacist were identified, 52 of which came from non-indexed journals. Those articles did not deal specifically about the roles and the impacts of pharmacist; however, articles were analyses for three spheres including the referencing of medical devices (n=36), the evaluation (n=19) and the distribution system (n=13). CONCLUSIONS French pharmacists have many theoretical and practical training opportunities. There are a few articles describing precisely the roles and the impacts of hospital pharmacists in medical device. It appears urgent to better document this activity in professional and indexed literature.

Abstract
Hospital-based health technology assessment (HTA) guides decisions as to whether new healthcare products should be made available within hospital structures. Its extension to medical devices (MDs) makes it possible to analyse several relevant aspects of these healthcare products in addition to their clinical value, and such evaluations are of interest to national health authorities, other healthcare establishments and industry. The aim of this work was to formulate several recommendations for a blueprint for hospital-based HTA for MDs in France. Five themes based on the work of the European Adopting hospital-based HTA in the EU (AdHopHTA) project were defined. Each member of the roundtable was then allocated a documentation task based on their experience of the theme concerned, and a literature review was carried out. An inventory of hospital-based HTA was performed and six recommendations aiming to strengthen and improve this approach were put forward: (1) encouragement of the spread of the hospital-based HTA culture and participation in communications and the promotion of this approach to hospital decision-makers; (2) adaptation of hospital-based HTA to the needs of decision-makers, taking into account the financial timetable and strategic objectives of the healthcare establishment; (3) harmonisation of the dossiers requested from industry between healthcare establishments, based on a common core; (4) promotion of the sharing of hospital-based HTA data under certain conditions, with data dissociable from the HTA report and the use of a validated methodology for the literature review; (5) creation of a composite indicator reflecting data production effort and the sharing of HTA activities, to be taken into account in the distribution of funds allocated for teaching, research and innovation missions considered of general interest; (6) the transmission of information directly from local to national level by pioneering centres. This work highlights the major issues at stake in hospital-based HTA and the need to valorise such activities in France.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The Medical Devices Committee (CODIMS) of the Assistance publique-Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP) is responsible for deciding whether innovative and costly sterile medical devices (SMD) should be adopted for the AP-HP network and for issuing recommendations on their proper use. The aim of this study was to qualify retrospectively the level of evidence of clinical studies used for the device evaluations by the CODIMS in 2012 and 2013 and to analyze the relationship between levels of evidence and decisions. MATERIAL AND METHOD Executive summaries written in 2012 and 2013 about studied SMD was analyzed and the level of evidence of clinical studies used was qualified in high/low levels of evidence according to the scale of Sackett et al. Then, levels of evidence were correlated to decisions published by the CODIMS. RESULTS Sixty-one files of SMD (72.1% of implantable MD) have been evaluated (225 clinical studies). Among them, only 28% of clinical studies had a high level of evidence (and 28.6% of MD at-risk) and 18% did not have any clinical studies. The CODIMS delivered an unfavourable opinion for 16 SMD: only 28 clinicals studies were available for evaluation. Among these, only 6 studies had a high level of evidence. DISCUSSION ET CONCLUSION The amount and level of evidence of clinical studies is naturally correlated to admittance of SMD. These findings suggest that the clinical evidence used to demonstrate safety and efficacy for high-risk medical devices is based on clinical studies with poor quality data, making more difficult the evaluation of SMD in hospital. The development of a multi-criteria tool to help decision-making would improve the process of SMD evaluation by the CODIMS.

Abstract
We describe here recent modifications to the French Coverage with Evidence Development (CED) scheme for innovative medical devices. CED can be defined as temporary coverage for a novel health product during collection of the additional evidence required to determine whether definitive coverage is possible. The principle refinements to the scheme include a more precise definition of what may be considered an innovative product, the possibility for device manufacturers to request CED either independently or in partnership with hospitals, and the establishment of processing deadlines for health authorities. In the long term, these modifications may increase the number of applications to the CED scheme, which could lead to unsustainable funding for future projects. It will also be necessary to ensure that the study conditions required by national health authorities are suitable for medical devices and that processing deadlines are met for the scheme to be fully operational. Overall, the modifications recently applied to the French CED scheme for innovative medical devices should increase the transparency of the process, and therefore be more appealing to medical device manufacturers.

Abstract
Assessments of new health technologies in Europe are often made at the hospital level. However, the guidelines for health technology assessment (HTA), e.g. the EUnetHTA Core Model, are produced by national HTA organizations and focus on decision-making at the national level. This paper describes the results of an interview study with European hospital managers about their need for information when deciding about investments in new treatments. The study is part of the AdHopHTA project. Face-to-face, structured interviews were conducted with 53 hospital managers from nine European countries. The hospital managers identified the clinical, economic, safety and organizational aspects of new treatments as being the most relevant for decision-making. With regard to economic aspects, the hospital managers typically had a narrower focus on budget impact and reimbursement. In addition to the information included in traditional HTAs, hospital managers sometimes needed information on the political and strategic aspects of new treatments, in particular the relationship between the treatment and the strategic goals of the hospital. If further studies are able to verify our results, guidelines for hospital-based HTA should be altered to reflect the information needs of hospital managers when deciding about investments in new treatments.

Abstract
Medical devices (MDs) cover a wide variety of products. They accompany changes in medical practice in step with technology innovations. Innovations in the field of MDs can improve the conditions of use of health technology and/or modify the organisation of care beyond the strict diagnostic or therapeutic benefit for the patients. However, these non purely clinical criteria seem to be only rarely documented or taken into account in the assessment of MDs during reimbursement decisions at national level or for formulary listing by hospitals even though multidimensional models for the assessment of health technologies have been developed that take into account the views of all stakeholders in the healthcare system In this article, after summarising the background concerning the assessment of health technologies in France, a definition of non-clinical criteria for the assessment of MDs is proposed and a decision tree for the assessment of MDs is described. Future lines of approach are proposed as a conclusion.

Abstract
Health technology assessment (HTA) uses a multidisciplinary approach to answer relevant questions regarding the safety, efficacy, effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of health technologies. There is growing interest in implementing HTA methods at the hospital level because it could facilitate decision-making regarding acquisition, implementation or discontinuation of technologies or interventions within the hospital. First, this article provides an overview of current international experiences and knowledge of hospital-based HTA. Then, it presents the different types of hospital-based HTA, providing examples of each of these models, as well as their strengths and limitations. Finally, it proposes a set of emerging issues that could help inform decision-makers who consider implementing hospital-based HTA, or other stakeholders interested in the field.
