Scope
YY/T 1930-2024 is the English-translated version of 医疗器械临床评价 术语和定义.
YY/T 1930 fixes the vocabulary of medical device clinical evaluation in China. It specifies the terms and definitions related to the clinical evaluation of medical devices, including those used in the design, conduct, recording and reporting of device clinical trials. Clinical evaluation, equivalence, clinical data and clinical evidence are words that carry different weight in different regulatory systems, and a Chinese submission that borrows a European or American usage can be read as claiming something it did not intend. This document is the terminology base under YY/T 0297, the general quality requirements for device clinical investigation. For a manufacturer preparing a clinical evaluation report for China, or adapting one written for another market, this is the document that settles what each term means to the reviewer.
