Glossary:
Feasibility Study: An early-stage clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of a medical device.
ISO 10993: An international standard for assessing the biocompatibility of medical devices.
ISO 13485: An internationally recognized standard for a quality management system (QMS) for medical device manufacturing.
ISO 14971: A standard outlining risk management processes for medical devices.
Premarket Approval (PMA): The FDA’s regulatory pathway for Class III devices, requires robust evidence of safety and effectiveness.
Premarket Notification (510(k)): A less stringent FDA pathway for demonstrating that a new device is substantially equivalent to a legally marketed device (predicate).
Prototype: An early working version of a medical device used for testing and refinement during development.
Quality Management System (QMS): A structured system of procedures and processes ensuring that medical devices meet regulatory and quality standards.
Risk Management (ISO 14971): The systematic application of policies, procedures, and practices for identifying, evaluating, and controlling risks associated with medical devices.
