I-FDA isungula isistimu yokuhlonza idivayisi ehlukile ukuze ikhombe ngokwanele imishini yezokwelapha ngokusabalalisa nokusetshenziswa kwayo. Uma isisetshenziswa ngokugcwele, ilebula yamadivayisi amaningi izofaka isihlonzi sedivayisi esiyingqayizivele (i-UDI) ngendlela efundeka umuntu neyomshini. Amalebula wedivayisi kufanele futhi athumele ulwazi oluthile mayelana nedivayisi ngayinye ku-FDA's Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID). Umphakathi ungasesha futhi ulande ulwazi ku-GUDID ku -AccessGUDID.
Uhlelo lokuhlonza idivayisi oluyingqayizivele, oluzongeniswa phakathi neminyaka embalwa, lunikeza izinzuzo eziningi ezizobonakala ngokugcwele ngokwamukelwa nokuhlanganiswa kwama-UDI ohlelweni lokulethwa kokunakekelwa kwezempilo. Ukuqaliswa kwe-UDI kuzothuthukisa ukuphepha kwesiguli, kuthuthukise ukubhekwa kwemakethe kwangemuva kwedivayisi, futhi kusize ukusungulwa kwemishini yezokwelapha.
Uma unombuzo noma okukukhathazayo ongathanda ukwabelana ngakho nethimba le-UDI, sicela uthinte Ideski Losizo le-FDA UDI.
