FDA 21 CFR Part 11 & UDI Compliance
In the early 1990's the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) began developing regulations to make use of the latest technologies to protect the public health. Specifically, they estimated that they could save $3.1 billion annually and prevent 13,000-26,000 deaths a year from direct and indirect medical device procedure/process infections.They believed that creating product identification standards would also reduce theft and counterfeiting of medical devices, improve health provider’s processes, increase patient safety, and generally improve the quality of care.
As a result, most food, drugs, medical devices, and cosmetics distributed in the United States today must comply with labeling regulations published by the FDA. The FDA 21 CFR Part 11 regulations go beyond traditional labeling to include other written, printed, or graphic matter on or accompanying a product.This also includes printed materials used for production processing, product components, quality assurance documents, packaging, labeling, installation, maintenance, and servicing documents.
In addition to the FDA, OSHA, DOT, other government agencies enforce strict requirements and regulations governing product identification, labeling, and shipping. As a result, most world class manufacturers and life science companies appropriate significant resources to comply and minimize errors. However, merely appropriating a large amount of money does not guarantee efficient results.
