Standards for validation and verification of medical laboratories are outlined in the international standard ISO 15189, in addition to national and regional regulations. [ 1 ] As per United States federal regulations, the following analytical tests need to be done by a medical laboratory that introduces a new testing device:
Verification is intended to check that a product, service, or system meets a set of design specifications. [6] [7] In the development phase, verification procedures involve performing special tests to model or simulate a portion, or the entirety, of a product, service, or system, then performing a review or analysis of the modeling results.
An electronic data capture (EDC) system is a computerized system designed for the collection of clinical data in electronic format for use mainly in human clinical trials. [1] EDC replaces the traditional paper-based data collection methodology to streamline data collection and expedite the time to market for drugs and medical devices.
The global medical device market was estimated to be between $220 and US$250 billion in 2013. [4] The United States controls ≈40% of the global market followed by Europe (25%), Japan (15%), and the rest of the world (20%). Although collectively Europe has a larger share, Japan has the second largest country market share.
The data management plan describes the activities to be conducted in the course of processing data. Key topics to cover include the SOPs to be followed, the clinical data management system (CDMS) to be used, description of data sources, data handling processes, data transfer formats and process, and quality control procedure
As part of a risk management system, decisions on the extent of validation and data integrity controls should be based on a justified and documented risk assessment of the computerised system." The subsequent validation or verification of computer systems targets only the "GxP critical" requirements of computer systems. Evidence (e.g. screen ...
A design history file is a compilation of documentation that describes the design history of a finished medical device.The design history file, or DHF, is part of regulation introduced in 1990 when the U.S. Congress passed the Safe Medical Devices Act, which established new standards for medical devices that can cause or contribute to the death, serious illness, or injury of a patient.
Regulation (EU) 2017/746 (IVDR) is a regulation of the European Union on the placing on the market and putting into service of in vitro diagnostic medical devices (IVD), repealing Directive 98/79/EC (IVDD), which also concerned IVD. The regulation was published in April 2017 and is closely aligned to the EU regulation on medical devices.
