ISO 13485:2016 Medical Device QMS Internal Auditor Training Course

Medical Devices are critical for the effective treatment of human health-related issues. Patients undergoing any form of treatment should not be adversely affected by medical devices that are used during a treatment which could result in adverse impacts. Medical Devices are therefore regulated by governments through laws and controls. The Medical Devices Rules: 2017, have been notified by the Central Government (Government of India) and have been in effect since 2018. The rules are harmonized with international regulatory practices.

Medical Devices have a classification based on the Risk they may pose on the patient due to the device. The lowest risk devices are classified as A, then B, C, and the most severe risk devices as D.
