Hear From Our Happy Clients

Our clients’ experiences speak volumes about our commitment to innovation and quality. Here, you can read firsthand accounts of how Vantage MedTech has positively impacted various medical technology projects.
My relationship with Vantage MedTech spans three different companies and 15 years. I return to the Vantage MedTech team because they consistently deliver innovative solutions in a timely and cost-effective manner. I plan to continue this relationship for many years to come!
Vantage MedTech has provided us with a broad range of expertise, from electrical and software design to quality assurance and regulatory affairs. It would have been unlikely we could have hit our scheduled milestones without their help.
We were a young start up with a great technology, but were running into issues that our manufacturing partner could not explain. Over a year later and still no clear solution, I engaged Vantage MedTech to perform an independent analysis. Within 24 hours, they not only identified the issue, but also presented solutions to correct it. Vantage MedTech came forward with the level of expertise that was necessary to help turn around the situation, allowing REACT to bring our advanced neuromuscular therapy to patients who need it.
I have had the pleasure of working with Vantage MedTech team for the past seven years. The Vantage team is extremely professional, responsive, and collaborative. I know that I can always count on the Vantage MedTech Team to provide a quality product that will meet the product requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Are The Standards For Medical Device Design?

The standards for medical device design include adherence to ISO 13485 for quality management systems, compliance with ISO 14971 for risk management, and meeting specific regulations like the FDA’s Quality System Regulation for medical devices.

These standards guide the design process, from initial concept to final product, focusing on user needs, product performance, and patient safety. Regular audits and reviews to ensure these standards are met throughout the device's lifecycle.

What Factors Need to Be Considered in The Medical Device Design Process?

During the medical device design process, it's important to consider the following factors:

  • User and Patient Safety: the device is safe for both users and patients.
  • Medical Necessity: the device must meet specific healthcare needs.
  • Regulatory Compliance: adherence to relevant regulations.
  • Usability: design for ease of use by healthcare professionals and patients.
  • Durability and Reliability: the device should be dependable and long-lasting.
  • Cost-Effectiveness: balance quality and affordability.

What Are ISO 13485 Requirements?

ISO 13485 sets requirements for a comprehensive quality management system in the design and manufacture of medical devices.

Requirements include:

  • Establishing well-defined processes
  • Effective risk management
  • Maintaining proper documentation
  • Implementing strict quality control measures
  • Regular internal audits
  • Corrective and preventive actions
  • Continuous improvement processes

This standard ensures that medical devices are consistently designed, produced, and distributed to meet both regulatory and customer requirements.

What Is The Difference Between ISO 13485 & GMP?

ISO 13485 and GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) differ in scope and application.

ISO 13485 is an international standard that outlines requirements for a quality management system in the medical device industry. It ensures consistent quality, product safety, and compliance with customer and regulatory requirements.

GMP is enforced by the FDA in the USA. It focuses on the actual production process, including raw materials, staff training, and facility hygiene.

Do Class II Medical Devices Require Design Controls?

Class II medical devices do require design controls. The FDA mandates these controls to ensure that devices meet user needs, intended uses, and specified requirements.

Design controls are a systematic set of practices that manufacturers must follow during the development process. They include defining user needs, establishing design inputs and outputs, verifying that designs meet requirements, validating device effectiveness for intended use, and maintaining comprehensive design documentation.
