Medical devices<\/h1>\n

In general, all products that are manufactured to be used for medical purposes. A medical device must, among other things, detect, relieve, prevent, treat, monitor or compensate for a disease, a disability or an injury.<\/p>\n

Examples of medical devices<\/span><\/h2>\n

For example, bandages, crutches, stethoscopes, X-ray machines or surgical instruments; pretty much everything that is used for medical purposes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Medical devices for in vitro diagnostics<\/span><\/h2>\n

For example, test tubes, bottles, microtiter plates and petri dishes.<\/span><\/p>\n

What do the different classifications mean for medical devices?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Medical devices are divided into 4 classes: Class I, Class IIa, Class IIb and Class III. The higher the risk to patient safety, the higher the classification.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1696959931621{margin-top: 10px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1698257036046{margin-top: -20px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;padding-right: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;padding-left: 30px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;border-radius: 5px !important;}” el_id=”ordlista-las-mer”]\n
