FDA AI Guardrail Dossier (Draft)¶
Purpose¶
Capture controls for any adaptive or AI-assisted output before FDA-enabled release.
1. Intended AI Functions (Gated)¶
- Daily AI wellness summary text
- AI-assisted routine drafting
- Optional data normalization/validation assistance for scanner workflows
Current App Store profile: disabled by default for adaptive claims-sensitive surfaces.
2. Model and Runtime Constraints¶
- Cloud model is invoked only through controlled backend endpoints.
- No on-device autonomous model retraining.
- No self-modifying clinical logic.
- Prompt templates are versioned and reviewed.
3. Guardrail Controls¶
- Feature-gate control
aiInsights,advisoryCopy,adaptiveProtocol,labInterpretationare required gates.- Input constraints
- Structured prompt schema with bounded fields only.
- Output constraints
- Policy filters remove or block diagnosis/treatment language.
- Disclosure control
- Explicit user consent gate before cloud processing.
- Fallback control
- If AI unavailable, app continues with non-adaptive organizer behavior.
4. Safety and Abuse Cases¶
- Hallucinated supplement or dose instruction
- Overconfident risk statements without evidence
- Inference from sparse data presented as certainty
- Contradictory guidance relative to known interaction data
Mitigation: strict output schema + moderation filter + disable path via flag and kill switch.
5. Validation Plan (Pre-Clearance)¶
- Prompt/response test suite using representative scenarios
- Red-team tests for prohibited medical claims
- Regression tests for guardrail bypass attempts
- Human review sampling of production-like outputs in staging
6. Monitoring and Change Control¶
- Version pinning for prompts and model configuration
- Incident logging and rollback procedure for AI output anomalies
- Re-validation required on model/provider or prompt policy changes
7. Open Items¶
- Finalize hazard analysis references and risk classification.
- Define formal acceptance criteria with regulatory reviewer sign-off.
- Integrate dossier with Design History File structure.
