Materiovigilance
Ensuring Medical Device Safety and Compliance

At Bioexcel, we provide comprehensive materiovigilance services to monitor and manage the safety of medical devices throughout their lifecycle. Our systematic approach ensures compliance with global regulations, mitigates risks, and safeguards patient safety in real-world use.

What is Materiovigilance?

Materiovigilance is the science of monitoring and evaluating the safety of medical devices post-market to identify, assess, and manage adverse events and risks. It plays a critical role in preventing harm to patients and ensuring continuous compliance with regulations like EU MDR (2017/745) and FDA requirements.

Why Materiovigilance is Essential

  • Regulatory Compliance: Mandatory for CE marking under EU MDR, CDSCO, and FDA requirements.
  • Patient Safety: Proactively identifies risks to minimize adverse events.
  • Real-World Evidence: Provides insights to improve device design and performance.
  • Market Trust: Demonstrates your commitment to safety and quality.
