<p>The Regenstrief National Center for
Medical Device Informatics (REMEDI) is an
evidence-based community of practice for medical
device informatics to promote and improve patient
safety. REMEDI collects data that have been
captured and stored on medical devices such as
smart infusion pumps. It enables users to conduct
complex analyses via a point-and-click web
interface. These analyses can be conducted on both
specific hospitals and groups of hospitals to enable
comparative examinations and benchmarking.
Members of the REMEDI community voluntarily
contribute data and identify themselves to each
other. In this short paper, we describe REMEDI
community and discuss technical aspects and
challenges of the platform. Next, we examine
different applications of the REMEDI platform and
how each application serves the community.
Finally, we highlight areas of future work on the
platform. </p>
