Product Development and Manufacturing Services
Micromedics’ forte is making good ideas into great products. We are practical,
goal-oriented, product developers. Our product development strategy is to work
closely with medical personnel to identify and understand unmet clinical needs
(the ideas) and then rapidly develop unique and technically superior devices (the
great products). Our ultimate goal is products that improve patient care and/or
simplify the practice of medicine.
Micromedics is a complete turn-key source, taking products from the concept
stage all the way through design, premarket approval and manufacturing into the
marketplace. To accomplish this, Micromedics has a full-time, in-house staff of
experienced professionals in various technical disciplines such as medical materials,
device engineering, drafting and documentation, product testing, regulatory compliance,
manufacturing, risk analysis and quality assurance. Our product development program
complies with US FDA cGMP requirements and European ISO13485 requirements.
