ISO 13485 Standard – QMS for Medical Devices in Egypt
Egypt uses the ISO 13485 standard – quality management systems (QMS) for medical devices for regulatory purposes. Since this is an industry-specific standard, it applies to device makers, distributors, retailers and importers in the medical sector.
The ISO 13485 standard provides an effective framework to meet the comprehensive requirements for a medical device quality management system. Manufacturers and service providers must both comply and demonstrate their compliance with regulatory requirements. Medical device manufacturers should appoint an experienced ISO 13485 consultant who can work on all risk-class devices.
As an ISO 13485 guidance consultant, Operon Strategist provides services like implementation, documentation, gap analysis, training and registration process for the ISO 13485 certification.

Medical device manufacturers should appoint an experienced ISO13485 consultant who can work on all risk class devices. The organizations need to monitor the safety and risk information during the product life cycle as per ISO 13485 requirement.
What are the Requirements of ISO 13485:2016 in Egypt?
The requirements of ISO 13485:2016 apply to all organizations, regardless of their size or type, unless otherwise specified. Any requirements that apply to medical devices also apply to associated services provided by the organization.
The new ISO 13485:2016 focuses on how companies should manage risk-based decisions related to purchasing, design, development, manufacturing, production control activities and other aspects of the quality management system.
While implementing the system, it is necessary to know the local applicable regulatory requirements as per Egypt’s norms and also any additional regulatory requirements, which you may have to comply with due to an export of the product. When designing the QMS as per ISO 13485, it is also necessary to understand the size of the company, the risk classification of the product and applicable exclusions and non-applicability.
