Evershine RD:

在新加坡,卫生部辖下的卫生科学局(HAS)是管理医疗器材的国家监管机构。
医疗器材是指任何仪器、器具、机器、体外诊断试剂、植入物、校准器、软体、材料、或其他相关的物品单独或组合使用于人体,出于以下任何一个或多个特定目的:

1. 任何疾病的诊断、预防、监测、治疗或缓解。

2. 损伤的诊断、监测、治疗或缓解或起到减轻的作用。

3.主要用于医学目的的解剖或生理过程的研究、替换、调节或支持。

4.支持或维持生命。

5. 妊娠控制。

6. 医疗器材消毒。

7. 出于医学或诊断目的,通过对源自于人体的样本进行体外检查来提供信息。

.用于调节或固定任何身体部位的任何植入物。

. 任何可注射的真皮填充剂或黏膜填充物

.通过侵入性方式去除或降解脂肪的任何仪器、器具或机器。

一般医疗器材

1. A 类(低风险):例如轮椅或压舌板等。

2. B 类(低到中等风险) :例如皮下注射针头或吸引设备等。

3. C 类(中到高风险) :例如呼吸机或骨固定板等。

4. D 类(高风险) :例如心脏瓣膜或植入式除颤器等。

影响医疗器材风险分类的因素包括

1. 医疗器材与身体接触的持续时间。

2. 侵入程度。

3. 医疗设备是否向患者提供医药产品或能量。

4. 是否对患者产生生物学影响。

5. 局部与全身效应(例如常规与可吸收缝线)。

6. 根据产品所有者的预期目的,如果两个或多个风险分类规则适用于医疗器材,则医疗器材被分配最高风险等级。

7. 一种医疗器材与另一种医疗器材同时使用的,风险分类规则应当分别适用于每一种医疗器材。
这与它们是否来自同一产品所有者无关(例如,生理监视器和单独的记录器,或通用注射器和注射器驱动器)。

体外诊断 (IVD) 医疗器材

1. A 类 (低个人风险和低公共卫生风险):例如样品容器

2. B 类 (中等个人风险或低公共卫生风险或两者兼有) :例如维生素B12、妊娠自检、抗核抗体、尿液试纸

3. C 类 (高个人风险或中等公共卫生风险或两者兼有) :例如血糖自测、HLA 分型、PSA 筛检、 IgM检查

4. D 类 (高个人风险和高公共卫生风险) :例如HIV筛查,HIV诊断试剂盒

影响 IVD 医疗器材风险分类因素包括

1. 确定产品是否符合体外诊断医疗器材的预期用途和使用适应症的定义。

2. 考虑到适当分类的规则。如果体外诊断医疗器材具有产品所有者规定的多种预期用途,将器材归为一个以上的类别,则应将其归为更高的类别。

3. 如果两个或多个风险分类规则适用于 IVD 医疗器材,则为其分配最高风险等级。

4. 应记录将产品置于特定风险等级的理由。

5. 其他需要考虑的因素包括:

.与 IVD 试剂一起使用的校准器应与 IVD 试剂归为同一级别。

.用于一种特定分析物或多种分析物的具有定量或定性指定值的独立对照材料应与 IVD 试剂归为同一类。

.用于多种或单一分析物的没有指定值的独立对照材料不应与 IVD 试剂归为同一类。

注意

1. 最低风险的A类医疗器材,可直接豁免医材登记。

2. 风险较高的B、C、D类医疗器材,需视情况分别经过完整评估(full evaluation)、简要评估(abridged evaluation)和快速评估(expedited evaluation)的审查途径。

3. 基本上B、C、D类医疗器材都可採取完整评估和简要评估;部分C、D类医疗器材可採取快速评估;部分等级B、C类医疗器材可採取立即评估。

In Singapore, the Health Sciences Authority (HAS) under the Ministry of Health is the national regulatory body for the management of medical devices.

A medical device means any instrument, appliance, machine, in vitro diagnostic reagent, implant, calibrator, software, material, or other related item used alone or in combination with the human body for any one or more of the following specific purposes:

1. The diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment or mitigation of any disease.

2. Diagnosis, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation or mitigation of damage

3. The study, replacement, modulation or support of anatomical or physiological processes primarily for medical purposes.

4. Supports or sustains life.

5. Pregnancy management.

6. Disinfection of medical equipment.

7. For medical or diagnostic purposes, to provide information by performing in vitro examination of samples derived from humans.

.Any implant used to adjust or fix any part of the body.

.any injectable dermal fillers or mucosal fillers

.Any instrument, appliance or machine which removes or degrades fat by invasive means.

General Medical Devices

1. Class A (low risk): eg wheelchair or tongue depressor, etc.

2. Class B (low to moderate risk): For example, hypodermic needles or suction devices, etc.

3. Class C (moderate to high risk): such as ventilator or bone plate, etc.

4. Class D (high risk): such as heart valves or implantable defibrillators, etc.

Factors affecting the risk classification of medical devices include:

1. The duration of the medical device in contact with the body.

2. Degree of invasiveness.

3. Does the medical device deliver medicinal products or energy to the patient.

4. Whether there is a biological impact on the patient.

5. Local and systemic effects (eg conventional and absorbable sutures).

6. The medical device is assigned the highest risk class if two or more risk classification rules apply to the medical device, based on the intended purpose of the product owner.

7. When one medical device is used simultaneously with another medical device, the risk classification rules shall apply to each medical device separately.
This is irrelevant whether they are from the same product owner (eg, physiological monitor and separate recorder, or universal syringe and syringe driver).

In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) Medical Devices

1. ClassA (low personal risk and low public health risk): e.g. sample containers.

2. ClassB (moderate personal risk or low public health risk or both): e.g. vitamin B12, pregnancy self-test, antinuclear antibodies, urine test strips.

3. ClassC (high personal risk or moderate public health risk or both): e.g. blood glucose self-test, HLA typing, PSA screening, IgM testing.

4. ClassD (high personal risk and high public health risk): eg HIV screening, HIV diagnostic kits.

Factors affecting the risk classification of IVD medical devices include:

1. Determine whether the product meets the definition of the intended use and indication for use of the IVD medical device.

2. Take into account the rules for proper classification. If an in vitro diagnostic medical device has more than one intended use as specified by the product owner and the device is classified in more than one category, it should be classified in a higher category.

3. If two or more risk classification rules apply to an IVD medical device, assign the highest risk class to it.

4. The justification for placing the product at a particular risk level should be documented.

5. Additional factors to consider include:

.Calibrators used with IVD reagents should be classified in the same class as IVD reagents.

.An independent control material with a quantitative or qualitative assigned value for a specific analyte or analytes should be classified in the same class as the IVD reagent.

.Independent control materials without assigned values for multiple or single analytes should not be classified in the same category as IVD reagents.

Notice

1. Medical equipment with the lowest risk of Class A can be directly exempted from medical material registration.

2. Class B, C, and D medical devices with higher risk need to go through the review process of full evaluation, abridged evaluation and expedited evaluation, respectively, depending on the situation.

3. Basically, all grades B, C, and D medical devices can be assessed in full and briefly; some grades C and D medical devices can be assessed quickly; some grades B and C medical devices can be assessed immediately.

Medical device adverse event reporting

All companies that deal in medical devices, including importers, manufacturers, suppliers and registrants, are required to report adverse events with their products.

Any adverse event (AE) meeting the following three basic reporting criteria was considered reportable:

1. An AE (or potential AE) occurs.

2. The medical device is associated with the AE.

3. AE results in one of the following outcomes:

.Constitute a serious threat to public health.

.Death of a patient, user, or others.

.Serious deterioration of the patient’s, user’s or other person’s health.

.There was no death or serious injury from the initial AE, but if the AE recurs, it may cause death or serious injury to the patient, user, or others.

How to report

Preliminary reports of adverse events should contain as much detail as possible, and if a reportable AE involves multiple distributors, each distributor must submit its own report.

Report process

Submit the Medical Device Distributor Mandatory Medical Device Adverse Event Reporting Form by email.

When reporting

Medical device companies, including product registrants, manufacturers, importers and suppliers, must report any adverse events related to the medical devices they operate. The following medical device related AEs must be reported to us

1. Serious public health threat: 48 hours.

2. Dead: 10 days.

3. Serious deterioration in health: 10 days.

4. If the adverse event occurs again, it may cause death or serious injury: 30 days.

Notice:

1. Once any person in the company (including sales reps) is aware of the AE situation, the time for reporting begins.
If there is uncertainty as to whether an AE is reportable, the report should still be submitted within the time frame specified.

2. Medical device distributors should update the content within 30 days of the initial report detailing the investigation of the adverse event, and may request follow-up reports if necessary.

3. Adverse events that occur outside of Singapore but the medical equipment is also supplied in Singapore do not need to be reported. Reporting is required only if required by the conditions of registration or licensing of these medical devices, or if a notification has been received requiring adverse event information.

须为当地公司并向HSA申请批发许可执照(Wholesaler’s license)。持有此项执照方可在新加坡境内供应医疗器材。不过,对零售商供应医疗器材,则不需持有批发许可执照。

1.申请方式:

MEDICS网站提出线上申请。

2.申请文件:提交质量管理体系 (QMS) 的以下文件之一:

.ISO 13485证书(范围必须包括医疗器材的进口、储存和/或分销)。

.GDPMDS 证书(该证书需要由新加坡认可委员会(SAC)认可的认证机构颁发)。

.GDPMDS豁免声明 (仅用于再出口或非临床用途的进口)。

.质量管理体系符合性声明(仅适用于处理 A 类医疗器材的公司)。

医疗器材不良事件报告

所有从事医疗器材交易的公司,包括进口商、製造商、供应商和註册人,都必须报告其产品的不良事件。

任何符合下列三个基本报告标准的不良事件 (AE) 均被视为可报告:

1. 发生了 AE(或潜在的 AE)。

2. 医疗设备与 AE 相关联。

3. AE 导致以下结果之一:

.成为对公众健康的严重威胁。

.患者、用户或其他人的死亡。

.患者、使用者或其他人的健康状况严重恶化。

.最初的 AE 没有死亡或重伤,但如果 AE 再次发生,可能会导致患者、用户或其他人死亡或重伤。

如何报告

不良事件的初步报告应包含尽可能详细的信息,如果一个可报告的 AE 涉及多个经销商,则每个经销商都必须提交自己的报告。

报告流程

通过电子邮件提交医疗器材经销商强制性医疗器材不良事件报告表。

何时报告

医疗器材公司,包括产品註册人、製造商、进口商和供应商,必须报告与其所经营的医疗器材相关的任何不良事件。
必须向我们报告以下与医疗器材相关的AE

1. 严重威胁公众健康:48小时

2. 死亡:10天

3. 健康状况严重恶化:10天

4. 如果不良事件再次发生,可能导致死亡或重伤:30天

注意:

1.一旦公司的任何人员(包括销售代表)了解 AE情况,报告的时间就开始了。如果不确定 AE 是否可报告,仍应在规定的时间范围内提交报告。

2.医疗器材经销商应在初始报告后 30 天内更新内容,详细说明对不良事件的调查,必要时可要求提供后续报告。

3.发生在新加坡境外但医疗器材也在新加坡供应的不良事件不需要报告。
只有当这些医疗器材的註册或许可条件要求,或者收到要求提供不良事件信息的通知时,才需要报告。

Medical device adverse event reporting

All companies that deal in medical devices, including importers, manufacturers, suppliers and registrants, are required to report adverse events with their products.

Any adverse event (AE) meeting the following three basic reporting criteria was considered reportable:

1. An AE (or potential AE) occurs.

2. The medical device is associated with the AE.

3. AE results in one of the following outcomes:

.Constitute a serious threat to public health.

.Death of a patient, user, or others.

.Serious deterioration of the patient’s, user’s or other person’s health.

.There was no death or serious injury from the initial AE, but if the AE recurs, it may cause death or serious injury to the patient, user, or others.

How to report

Preliminary reports of adverse events should contain as much detail as possible, and if a reportable AE involves multiple distributors, each distributor must submit its own report.

Report process

Submit the Medical Device Distributor Mandatory Medical Device Adverse Event Reporting Form by email.

When reporting

Medical device companies, including product registrants, manufacturers, importers and suppliers, must report any adverse events related to the medical devices they operate. The following medical device related AEs must be reported to us

1. Serious public health threat: 48 hours.

2. Dead: 10 days.

3. Serious deterioration in health: 10 days.

4. If the adverse event occurs again, it may cause death or serious injury: 30 days.

Notice:

1. Once any person in the company (including sales reps) is aware of the AE situation, the time for reporting begins. If there is uncertainty as to whether an AE is reportable, the report should still be submitted within the time frame specified.

2. Medical device distributors should update the content within 30 days of the initial report detailing the investigation of the adverse event, and may request follow-up reports if necessary.

3. Adverse events that occur outside of Singapore but the medical equipment is also supplied in Singapore do not need to be reported. Reporting is required only if required by the conditions of registration or licensing of these medical devices, or if a notification has been received requiring adverse event information.
