Editorial seat — open
Accountable for clinical-use classification, hospital tier mapping, and procurement-kit composition.
A standing record of who maintains MedevIQ, how its data is compiled, and the licence under which it is published.
MedevIQ exists because no single open work today maps the medical device used in a hospital to the regulatory frameworks that govern it, the manufacturers that produce it, the standards it must comply with, and the codes under which it is classified. Procurement teams reconstruct that map every time they plan a hospital; researchers reconstruct it every time they study one. The catalogue is the seat that should not have to be reconstructed.
This is a reference work, not a product. Records are versioned, citation-stable, and licensed under CC-BY 4.0. No record is gated behind a paywall. The commercial layer adds procurement-tier services on top of the open foundation; the foundation itself remains open in perpetuity.
Three editorial seats. Each record falls under one of these domains; each editor's name appears on the methodology page beside the records they are accountable for.
Accountable for clinical-use classification, hospital tier mapping, and procurement-kit composition.
Accountable for regulatory crosswalks across CDSCO, FDA, CE, IVDR, NMPA, PMDA, TGA and the other framework markets.
Accountable for codification (GMDN, UMDNS, LOINC, ICD-10-PCS, CPT, HSN, WCO HS6), schema design, and citation infrastructure.
Editor seats are filled prior to v1.1.0. Each editor is independent, holds no equity in or consulting relationships with any medical device manufacturer covered by the catalogue, and discloses such relationships annually in the methodology document.
