医疗领域脑机接口技术和美国FDA监管现状浅析

      Analysis of Brain-Computer Interface Technology in the Medical Field and the Regulation of the U.S. FDA

      • 摘要: 脑机接口技术是一项引领医疗前沿的创新技术,它通过实现大脑与外部设备的直接交互,帮助患者重建日常功能或用于神经调控治疗。虽然该项技术提供了更广泛的临床应用场景,但是使用过程中可能存在潜在风险、个体差异以及长期效果监测等问题。因此,如何对其安全有效性进行充分评价是监管机构面临的挑战。该研究首先对脑机接口技术的发展历程和不同类型进行了简要介绍,总结了不同类型脑机接口医疗器械在美国的监管情况,分析了目前美国FDA对该类产品的监管要求。同时,对当前脑机接口技术发展进行总结与展望,希望能够为我国脑机接口医疗器械的监管提供有益的借鉴与启示。

         

        Abstract: Brain-Computer Interface technology is an innovative and cutting-edge medical advancement that enables direct interaction between the brain and external devices, facilitating the reconstruction of daily functions for patients or serving as a method for neuroregulation therapy. Although this technology offers a broad range of clinical applications, there are potential risks, individual variances, and the need for long-term monitoring of its effects during utilization. Consequently, the comprehensive evaluation of its safety and effectiveness poses a considerable challenge for regulatory agencies. This study provides a concise introduction to the development history and various types of BCI technology, followed by a summary of the regulatory situation for different types of BCI medical devices in the United States. Furthermore, the regulatory requirements imposed by the United States FDA on this product category are analyzed. The article concludes by presenting a summary and future perspective on the current development of BCI technology, with the aim of offering beneficial insights and guidance for the regulation of BCI medical devices.
