UDI codes are an alpha-numeric code established by the Food and Drug Administration to adequately identify medical devices through their distribution and use. They were first used on medical devices but are now increasingly common on other products used in procedures. They are typically either manually entered into a computer or scanned by a solution like QSight that helps hospitals manage their inventory.
