What Are Implants?
Medical device implants are medical devices designed to be placed inside the human body, either permanently or temporarily, to replace a missing biological structure, support or enhance an existing structure, or monitor physiological functions. These devices are surgically implanted and are intended to provide therapeutic or diagnostic benefits.
For instance, orthopedic implants like hip and knee replacements help restore mobility in patients with joint issues, while cardiovascular devices such as pacemakers and heart valves regulate or repair heart functions. Neurological implants like deep brain stimulators are used to treat conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, and cochlear implants help restore hearing in individuals with severe hearing loss. These implants are made from biocompatible materials, such as titanium or silicone, ensuring they integrate safely with the body.
How We Help with Key Considerations for Implants?
We focus on ensuring your implant device meets all regulatory and safety standards while addressing key considerations throughout the development and post-market phases:
Field Replacements or Recalls for Defective Implants
Our experts will help you develop strategies to manage field replacement or recall to ensure timely corrective actions in case of defective implants to minimize the risk.
Biocompatibility and Material Testing
Our team ensures your implant undergoes thorough biocompatibility and material testing per ISO 10993, validating that it is safe for long-term use in the human body.
Clinical Data for Long-Term Performance and Safety
We assist in gathering and analyzing clinical data to prove your implant’s long-term safety, durability, and patient outcomes, which are essential for regulatory approval and post-market surveillance.
Monitoring Adverse Events
We assist in setting up systems to track adverse events through the FDA’s Medical Device Reporting (MDR) system and other regulatory frameworks to ensure quick response to safety concerns.
Sterilization Validation and Packaging Integrity
We help you ensure your sterilization and packaging methods meet regulatory standards, guaranteeing that your implant remains safe and sterile during distribution and storage.
Traceability of Unique Device Identifiers (UDI)
We ensure that your implant is fully traceable using unique device identifiers (UDI), allowing for proper patient tracking and regulatory compliance.
Pre-market Submission
We guide you through the pre-market submission process, whether it involves 510(k), PMA, or De Novo applications, ensuring all necessary documentation and testing are in place for a smooth approval process.
How We Help with Post-Market Requirements for Implants
Once your implant is on the market, we help you stay on top of the necessary post-market activities to ensure continued safety, effectiveness, and compliance:
Post-Market Surveillance (PMS) and PMCF Plans
We assist in developing a comprehensive PMS plan to monitor adverse events, along with a Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) plan to gather long-term clinical performance data, ensuring your implant remains safe over time.
Adverse Event Reports
We ensure that all implant failures, infections, and other complications are properly documented and reported to regulatory authorities, ensuring ongoing patient safety.
Registry Data Reports
We help manage implant-specific registries, tracking device performance and collecting data to monitor the long-term safety and effectiveness of the implant.
Device Retrieval and Failure Analysis Reports
In the event of implant failure, we help document findings from explanted devices and conduct failure analysis to identify root causes and implement corrective actions.
Long-Term Safety and Performance Studies
We assist in conducting studies focused on the durability, biocompatibility, and long-term outcomes of your implant, ensuring that the device continues to meet safety standards.
Labeling and IFU Updates
We help you update labeling and instructions for use (IFU) as new information emerges, ensuring that they reflect evolving knowledge about implantation techniques, contraindications, and safety considerations.
Sterility Assurance Reports
We assist in monitoring and ensuring sterility for implants distributed and stored over time, addressing any concerns related to sterility during the product lifecycle.
Our Expertise
Our experts will help you identify insufficiencies, determine inspection readiness, and evaluate risks, smoothing the inspection process and providing a greater chance of successful inspection. We will conduct periodic internal audits to ensure compliance with all the applicable ISO standards, cGMPs and internal regulations.
