Product Development Medical Devices



Product Development  Medical Devices

The medical device sector has a remarkable impact on the healthcare industry and is expanding its role in the global economy. It is significantly evolving over the span of years.  Advancement in scientific knowledge and engineering technology has accelerated the innovation in medical devices. Medical device technology is interdisciplinary and individuals need its assistance in day-to-day life for example contact lenses, thermometer, glasses etc.  Increase in the number of medical facilities has boosted the demand for the medical devices.

The latest technology medical devices include 

  • Smart inhalers for Asthma
  • Wireless brain sensors to measure the temperature and pressure 
  • Artificial organs like blood vessels 

The global market for medical devices is expected to reach new heights in forthcoming years.  The medical device market size has increased its potential and shifted its power from pharmaceutical to device making. The huge gap between supply and demand has advanced the production lines for the Indian companies. India ranks 20th in the manufacturing of medical devices. 

Design and Development of a Medical Device 

Unlike every product, the development of medical devices has defined stages of the lifecycle to ensure the hallmarks which include quality, consistency and patients’ safety. An effective medical device is one which complies with the regulatory requirements, and delivers the functionalities to the end user. The key elements to be considered during the development of medical devices include the safety and efficacy of the product.

Medical device design and development FAQ


Medical device design and development FAQ based on how the design and development adds value to end user and simultaneously captures profitable market share is really a tough job.Is it because healthcare is a life-critical segment? Or is it because it involves complex procedures? Apparently, both. In addition, it needs to be aligned with healthcare regulatory requirements, solution specifications, and should deliver functionalities to satisfy end user needs.

These Medical device design and development FAQ’s will guide you through all your queries.

  • How do you design a medical device?

Medical device design is the first stage in the production of new tools, appliances, and instruments for use in a wide variety of medical and surgical processes. It includes not only the mechanisms and implements used to treat patients at hospitals and other medical facilities but also implantable, wearable, and portable medical devices that can perform the functions of human organs, deliver medication, and monitor patient vitals in real time. The functionality of the final product is dependant upon the design stage.

  • How long does it take to Develop a Medical Device?

Developing and gaining approval for a new medical device is not a fast process and can take many months or even years depending on the type of device being developed. Studies show that it takes three to seven years to bring a device from concept to approval. This may seem like a long time, but it includes the entire device lifecycle, including research, development and testing.

  • What is Design Verification in Medical Device Development?

Design verification is a qualification testing methodology that ensures that a medical device is designed as it is intended. Verification is an internal process, which evaluates whether a design output meets the specified requirements, specification or regulation defined in the design input. Verification testing may occur at any point in the process, beginning from the ideation & conceptualization phase to the post-production phase.

  • What is Design Validation in Medical Device Development?

Design validation is a testing from the market perspective. It is intended to validate whether a medical device is meeting the user’s needs. Successful validation proves that a device meets needs of users in the targeted market. Although validation comes into the picture at a later stage of product development process,  it still measures the very first part of the complete process, which is defining user needs. Validation must involve testing and clinical evaluation. Also, it requires a device to be developed in the production environment with an involvement of end-user for actual or simulated testing.
