Hi everyone,
Greetings from South Africa.
I currently feel like such an :ca: ! I am investigating the regulatory route possibilities for a newly developed infant apnoea monitor. As a medical device manufacturer our initial thinking was to go the 13485 route, as it is the one we are familiar with. As I understand it, if we classify the product as a medical device it would probably be a class 1(acc. to the MDD). After further investigation it was discovered that similar products, are in fact, not classified as medical devices. We are now considering ISO 9001: 2000 certification as opposed to 13485. After all that useless info here is the question I need answered: What type of certification would we require to market a disposable (product life of approx. 14 months), battery powered non-medical device in the US? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
