Understanding the Product Life Cycle for Medical Devices

Bringing a medical device to market involves a series of interconnected stages known as the product life cycle. These stages are concept, planning, design, validation, launch, and post-launch market activities. 

Each phase is critical to the success and compliance of your medical device, and we can help you every step of the way.

Concept
Phase

During the concept phase, LFH Regulatory can assist you in evaluating the feasibility and regulatory implications of your product.

We provide expert guidance in assessing potential risks, compliance requirements, and strategic considerations to ensure a solid foundation for your project.

Design
Phase

LFH Regulatory plays a crucial role in the design phase, ensuring that your software development processes align with the requirements of IEC 62304 and ISO 13485.

We provide consultancy and support in defining software requirements, establishing design controls, and implementing effective risk management strategies.

Our experts work hand-in-hand with your team to develop software architecture and facilitate compliance-driven design decisions.

Planning
Phase

In the planning phase, LFH Regulatory works closely with your team to develop a comprehensive regulatory strategy. We help identify applicable regulations, standards, and guidelines that pertain to your software or AI (Artificial Intelligence) driven medical devices.

Our experts assist in creating a detailed project plan that encompasses compliance milestones, resource allocation, and risk management.

Validation
Phase

Validating the software is a vital step in the compliance journey. LFH Regulatory assists in developing validation plans, protocols, and test strategies to verify the functionality, performance, and safety of your medical device software.

Our team provides guidance on conducting rigorous testing, analysing results, and documenting validation activities in line with IEC 62304 and ISO 13485 requirements.

Launch
Phase

When your product is ready for launch, LFH Regulatory ensures that your regulatory submissions comply with the necessary regulations and guidelines. We review and optimise submission documents, addressing any compliance concerns or gaps.

Our experts provide guidance on labelling requirements, instructions for use, and post-market surveillance obligations to streamline the launch process.

Post-Launch Market Activities

After your product hits the market, LFH Regulatory continues to support you in post-launch activities. We assist in establishing post-market surveillance procedures, including adverse event reporting, complaint handling, and corrective actions.

Our experts help you navigate regulatory inspections and audits, ensuring ongoing compliance with IEC 62304 and ISO 13485.
