Challenges in Medical Devices

DISCOVER MORE ON THE INDUSTRY

Medical devices are regulated by laws that govern the safety and performance of devices across their lifetime, pre- and post-market. A risk-based classification system determines the pre- and post-market requirements for medical devices.

Medical devices with higher risks for the users require Notified Bodies to perform assessments on the safety and performance of the device. In this way, they ensure the continued safety and performance of medical devices, pre-, and post-market.

Manufacturers must ensure to only place medical devices in the market that comply with the legislative requirements. This requires documentation of the design, development, and manufacturing process of the device including sufficient clinical evidence that shows the device is safe and performs as intended.

By establishing a quality management system and documented procedures for manufacturing and post-market monitoring activities, the quality of the product is maintained leading to continued safety and performance of the medical device during its lifecycle.
