Improved Patient Safety
- Identifies: Right product, right
patient, right time
- Is scanned at the bedside
- Helps prevent medication errors
- Combats counterfeit products
- Facilitates recalls

What is a data standard?
- Data standard: A common language for trading partners to use about
products that pass through the supply chain. SAME DATA. DIFFERENT NAMES.
UDI
Unique Device Identification
GS1 Standards
Product Identification
DI
Device Identifier
GTIN
Global Trade Item Number
PI
Product Identifier
(if applicable)
AI
Application Identifier
- Expiration Date AI(17) – e.g. 141120
- Lot/Batch AI(10) – e.g. 1234AB
- Serial Number A(21) – e.g. 12345XYZ
Product identifier data will vary by medical device type and manufacturer current practice.
DI + PI = UDI GTIN or GTIN + AI(s) = UDI
GTIN is Just a Number
Application identifier (product code) Packaging indicator Company ID Product ID Check digit Application identifier (expiration date) Expiration date Application identifier (lot number) Lot number

Patient Safety
- Standards should only include
information that is regulated and needed at the point of care – This information is already available to physicians and on our websites and in IFUs
- Proprietary information does not
improve patient safety
GTIN Challenges
- Create a global product database
- Manufacturers had to change barcode labeling logic
- Cook distribution systems had to change
- EDI systems had to be altered to pass data through
all systems
- Packaging changed, resulting in going from a 1-to-1
relationship to a 1-to-many relationship between product number and packaging
- UOM changed, requiring inventory conversions
FDA Unique Device Identification (UDI) Pilot
Helped to Identify Data Sources Developed an Automated System for Submitting Data Tested the FDA Portal for Submissions Provided Valuable Feedback about the Proposed Rule In September and October 2012, Cook participated in the FDA UDI Pilot. The purpose of the pilot was to help the FDA assess their proposed rule that would require all devices to carry a Unique Device Identifier.
