The reporter learned from the Haidian District Food and Drug Administration that the whole region is currently promoting the traceability of implantation and intervention medical apparatus using units.
With the advancement of this work, patients who use implants and interventional medical apparatus in the future can use the barcode on the medical record or the name of the medical apparatus to inquire from the hospital medical department to clearly and intuitively understand the relevant information of the medical apparatus implanted in the body.
According to the introduction, the traceability of medical apparatus is to track the processing, sales and usage of medical apparatus products, which can be traced back to each specific implantable and interventional medical apparatus production, sales, usage and the resulting adverse reactions. On the one hand, this can fully protect the rights and interests of consumers. When there is a quality problem with an implantable or interventional medical apparatus, the problem product can be recalled immediately, and the patient who has used the problem product can be monitored; on the other hand, it can prevent the reuse of counterfeit implantable and interventional medical apparatus from being used in clinical practice, and prevent the reuse of counterfeit products and high-risk medical apparatus.
