I work at a medical device manufacturer that makes ambulatory drug pumps
and vascular catheters. I write the Instructions for Use, Patient
Information, Clinician Information, Operator's Manuals, and associated
labeling for the products.
About three weeks ago, I inquired similarly, but more specifically, to
those who work for medical device or pharmaceutical companies. I formed
an informal group of just over twenty people who work in these areas or
who are interested in them.
