What is ISO 13485?
ISO 13485:2016 specifies requirements for a Quality Management System for medical devices and related services. It is the most widely used standard for medical device quality management worldwide.
ISO 13485 is designed for organizations involved in the design, production, installation, and servicing of medical devices. It incorporates risk management (ISO 14971) and regulatory requirements specific to the medical device industry.
In Saudi Arabia, the Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA) regulates medical devices. ISO 13485 is the foundation for SFDA medical device establishment licensing and market authorization.
The standard emphasizes patient safety, regulatory compliance, and traceability throughout the device lifecycle.
