Compliance In Focus

In order for a new medical product to reach patients it must first be proven safe and effective and then be approved for use by the governing regulatory body. Clinical trials are the vehicle to bring these innovative technologies to patients and evaluate them in support of regulatory approval. Unless a product is approved under the appropriate regulations for a specific use, it cannot be commercialized for that indication. In clinical research the products are still investigational, and even in a hospital setting, these products are treated differently.
