In medical devices industries, a change management plan is crucial for maintaining regulatory compliance and ensuring product quality. The materials have to meet design needs such as mechanical, thermal, chemical, as well as biocompatibility requirements. It is also important to have safety of long-term supply with constant quality.
Plasticizers play a key role in sensitive applications such as medical tubing and other device components by imparting flexibility, durability, and elasticity required to resist kinking and failure in future modes. Plasticizers are selected for their ability to meet critical application requirements while maintaining biocompatibility and enhancing clarity.
The article introduces various Cardiovascular applications, gives a detailed information on the synthetic polymers used in such applications with a special reference to “TTK-Chitra Heart Valve” as well as other Cardiovascular Devices developed by the “SCIMST”.
