Medical Devices Medical Devices Policy and Procedure for seeking approval to use a medical device
| Policy and Procedure for seeking approval to use a medical device |
| Written by Clinical Risk Co-ordinator | ||||
|
In certain situations, a clinical specialist may be of the opinion that a manufactured and approved medical device may be utilised more effectively if modified from the original. It is also possible that the clinician may develop a device, which suits a particular need, but is not currently available commercially. "In-house" therefore refers to any non-commercial, none CE-marked source, but excludes packs of commercially available equipment prepared and sterilised in the Trust's sterilisation and disinfection units. It is not the intention of the Trust to stifle creativity, but more, to ensure that any such device is safe for patient use and for staff handling the device.
