It’s the most common dilemma that serialized digital content platforms face. Should they release an entire book or season at once so audiences can binge, or release chapters or episodes over time to encourage audiences to return?
Most medical devices do not hit the market through rigorous safety testing but by being deemed similar enough to something already approved—the “predicate” device through a mechanism known as the FDA’s 510(k) pathway. But similar is not a synonym for safe.
