Per FDA and IMDRF, the term “Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) is defined as software intended to be used for one or more medical purposes that perform these purposes without being part of a hardware medical device.

- Identify FDA approved software that can be used as a medical device for treating childhood mental health.
