Development phases for medical devices.
An orderly procedure for analyzing potential new medical devices to determine whether or not they should be commercially developed is presented. A product checklist screens devices to determine their need and whether they will be economically viable. A design specification ensures that design engineers, marketing personnel, and financial personnel agree on function and costs. Reviews during the design, development, pre-production, and production provide continual management of the project to keep it on course.
