Medical Device Safety

Medical device safety refers to ensuring that medical devices, like defibrillators or insulin pumps, are safe to use and perform their intended functions without causing harm. This involves rigorous testing, monitoring for potential risks, and following strict regulations during design, manufacturing, and usage. The goal is to minimize any chances of malfunction or adverse effects, so patients and healthcare providers can trust these devices in delivering effective care. Continuous evaluation and improvement are essential for maintaining safety, protecting patient health, and ensuring devices meet high quality standards throughout their lifecycle.
