WHAT IS ISO 13485?

ISO 13485 is an international quality management standard that was developed specifically for medical device manufacturers. It defines the requirements for a quality management system, given that an organization can prove its ability to systematically provide medical devices and related services that meet the requirements of the customer and regulatory authorities.

ENTERPRISES TO WHICH ISO 13485 MAY APPLY

  • organizations responsible for one or more stages of the full cycle of medical device production
  • importers and distributors
  • service centers
  • other organizations that provide services in the manufacture of products and have implemented quality management systems


The requirements of this standard apply to organizations, regardless of their size and type, unless explicitly stated otherwise.

DSTU EN ISO 13485:2018

The production and distribution of medical devices is an industry with high quality and safety requirements. Therefore, companies involved in this business must establish a quality management system (QMS). For medical devices, ISO 13485 is a quality management standard that sets out the requirements for a QMS.

Certification of the management system is mandatory for the production of medical devices and medical devices for in-vitro diagnostics. In other cases, such certification is voluntary. DSTU EN ISO 13485:2018 is the quality management standard for medical devices in Ukraine, which corresponds to the international standard ISO 13485:2016 and is included in the list of European harmonized standards. Its application is a presumption of compliance with the Basic Requirements of the Technical Regulations.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF IMPLEMENTING A QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM PER ISO 13485?

  • The system provides a basis for determining whether products of different risk classes, including in vitro diagnostic products and implantable medical devices, meet the standards.
  • The QMS ensures consistent quality of products and systematization of processes at the enterprise.
  • Documentation of processes helps to standardize product requirements.
  • The system helps manage risks to products and processes, suppliers, and resources.
  • The system ensures effective product traceability and recall.
  • The system helps to improve processes and products, comply with legal requirements, and control quality.
  • Implementing the QMS helps to improve the company’s profile and gain an advantage in tenders and during product advertising presentations owing to the QMS certificate.
