It is also revealed how labeling can be used by medical device OEMs as a competitive advantage. Specifically, the following questions are addressed:

• Could you please explain exactly what we mean by labeling, and further, clarify the difference between high level and low level labeling?
• How can labeling, both high level and low level, be used as a strategic advantage?
• Could you please explain the difference between intended use and indications for use?
• What is this intended use rule and why is it important to medical device manufacturers?
• What is meant by manufacturer's objective intent?
• Do you have examples you can provide?
• What are the most important takeaways with all of this for medical device manufacturers?
