If a product has passed regulatory clearance and made it on the market, consumers generally assume it is safe for use. CGMP standards set by the FDA exist to ensure that these products meet the government\u2019s standards for safety and effectiveness. The regulatory oversight that comes from employing current Good Manufacturing Practices helps to prevent products that are defective, contaminated, unsafe, or ineffective from getting into the hands of consumers. Testing alone is not adequate enough to ensure quality and safety, therefore it is important that drugs and medical devices are manufactured under the conditions and practices set forth by cGMP regulations. This will ensure that quality is built into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sanner-group.com\/capabilities\/industrial-design\/\">design<\/a> and manufacturing process of a given product.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:heading --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do Medical Device Manufacturers Have to Follow cGMP Regulations?<\/h2>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Medical device manufacturers are required to follow all applicable FDA guidelines, including compliance with current Good Manufacturing Practices. The Code of Federal Regulations <a href=\"https:\/\/www.accessdata.fda.gov\/scripts\/cdrh\/cfdocs\/cfCFR\/CFRSearch.cfm?CFRPart=820\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Title 21 Part 820 (QMSR)<\/a> outlines the regulations that medical device companies are required to follow. FDA cGMP guidelines call for manufacturers of medical devices to establish and maintain policies that ensure device design requirements and other decisions are well-documented and adequately justified. These guidelines are broad, allowing them to be applied to a variety of medical devices. \u00a0It is up to the manufacturer to determine how to best apply the guidelines in order to achieve compliance. \u00a0The FDA conducts regular inspections of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sanner-group.com\/insights\/blog\/7-tips-for-successful-medical-device-manufacturing\/\">medical device manufacturing<\/a> facilities to make sure they remain in compliance with cGMPs and 21 CFR Part 820 (QMSR).<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:heading --><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Current Good Manufacturing Practices at Sanner<\/h2>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Sanner\u2019s sites are FDA registered, ISO 13485 certified, and abide by current Good Manufacturing Practices.
