The emphasis on medical device packaging design is centered on delivering the product in pristine and often sterile conditions to the end user. Once a medical device has been opened and/or used and must be transported, the regulations for such come under the scrutiny of governmental agencies, such as the US Department of Transportation.Posted on 12 Jul 2007
There are regulations governing the packaging required to ship a used healthcare product back to the manufacturer or to a decontamination facility. Exakt Technologies, Inc. (Oklahoma City, OK, USA) has a broad range of packaging designs to accommodate devices as small as sutures and as large as long endoscopes. The company also provides many of the packages in forms that meet the standards for shipping infectious substances, or that contain body fluids such as blood.
In addition to standard designs that accommodate a variety of shapes and sizes, Exakt can also custom design or custom assemble packages specific to a particular device. There are a variety of additional services the company can provide, including fulfillment services. These packages are ideal for clinical trials, product recalls, and medical device reporting (MDR).
