✅In a new guidance released on Friday, the agency said it will not object to limited modifications to the indications, claims, functionality, or hardware or software the devices,
as long as they do not impose undue risk.
✅ The new guidance might make care for COVID-19 patients safer, as hospitals move patient monitoring equipment into hallways to reduce the need for providers to enter patient rooms and also patients can be treated from home.
