Have any (non-FDA) standards been published yet for electronic labelling of medical devices?

Not as far as I know. I'm aware of a group in the EU working on an e-labelling protocol for IVD's. It is expected that this will some day be extended for Medical devices.

EU already released guidance document for e-labeling MEDDEV 2.14/3 REV 1 released on January 2007 permits IVD companies whose products are intended for PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY to provide their Instructions for Use (IFU) on different media such as CD, internet, fax, etc. in addition to the traditional paper format. But not released e-labeling guidance document for MDD so far.

Attached is MEDDEV 2.14/3 REV 1, IVD GUIDANCES: Supply of Instructions For Use (IFU) and other information for In-vitro Diagnostic (IVD) Medical Devices.

Thanks and Regards

Annex B of the harmonized standard EN 1041:2008 covers the topic of electronic instructions for use of medical devices (within the EU).

As far as Medical Devices are concerned there is a draft directive circulating and comments were due 15 September. The Commission, Industry, and Member States have not been able to agree on it however. Potentially after new draft is circulated finalization will happen early 2011.
