Updated quarterly, this Handbook is the definitive guide to Global Medical Devices Regulations!
Medical device regulation around the world has gained more importance than ever. Governments and regulatory bodies across the region have put in place new regulatory systems or refined the existing ones. A registered product requires a lot of technical documentation to prove its efficacy, safety, and quality. A smooth and successful registration process demands soft skills for dealing with various key stakeholders in the government, testing centers, and hospitals, and among doctors.
This Handbook is an excellent reference for understanding what is required to bring medical devices to market under the many different regulatory systems in this important region. It begins by providing a solid background to concepts such as device classification, clinical trials, and labeling. Detailed information is then provided for each country. It is a useful tool as companies and innovators are increasingly looking worldwide to market existing products but also provide a launching pad for new technologies.
As medical device quality assurance and regulatory affairs professionals, it can be challenging to stay on top of changes happening in our industry. Few people have the time to read lengthy articles these days and although many online newsletters exist, they are often packed with PR releases, ads, or unrelated information. That is why we started this Handbook for QA/RA professionals in the medical device and IVD industry.
This comprehensive Handbook is essential for researchers in medical devices who want to get early exposure to safety and efficacy issues, and for marketing/sales personnel who need to know the various institutions that approve regulatory matters for market accessibility. The contacts listed in the chapters are valuable and will lead readers to have their first approach in understanding the dynamic process involved in regulatory affairs.
