Why Is Certification Important to the Medical Industry ?

The medical industry has certain quality system expectations and regulatory requirements for organizations involved in one or more stages of a medical device’s lifecycle, including design and development, production, storage and distribution, installation, or servicing of a medical device and design and development or provision of associated activities (e.g. technical support).

When it comes to the devices that can save lives and improve health, standards certifications are unquestionably critical. Orion can facilitate accreditation for required standards for manufacturers of medical devices, as suited to a variety of markets.

Medical Industry Standards

13485: Medical Devices Standard

This standard represents the requirements for a comprehensive management system within the design and manufacture of medical devices. This standard is somewhat unique in that some of its requirements separate it from the main ISO 9001 quality management standard, so many organizations that are ISO 13485 compliant are not able to also be ISO 9001 compliant. Some of these unique considerations include the need to ensure that all medical devices are sterile, the ability to track and inspect devices that are implanted in patients, and the management of risk during product development.
