Devices on the list include diagnostic testing kits and supplies for rapid test development and processing, personal protective equipment, devices for monitoring vital signs, vaccine delivery and managing acute illnesses, including ventilators, infusion pumps and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy systems. The medical countermeasures include biologics, drugs and devices that the administration has deemed necessary to respond to future pandemics, epidemics, and chemical, biological and radiological/nuclear threats.
