“Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to
all we now know and understand, 
while imagination embraces the entire world,
and all there ever will be to know and understand.”

OpenQRS: Open Source Tools to Assure Quality, Reliability and Safety of Health Care Devices

 Currently, OpenQRS is building a methodology for the medtech community to proactively address quality, reliability or safety (QRS) for health care devices designed for low and middle income countries.  Our aim is to support sharing these quality and safety resources (methods, tools) in order to make it easy, effective and affordable to robustly monitor QRS data for devices anywhere.
