Design and manufacturing of medical devices puts a high constraint to manufacturers to warrant the quality of these devices. International regulations require that medical devices fulfill a given set of essential requirements before the devices can be brought on the market and put into service. Elana bv is offering their devices for sale in Europe, Canada and (soon to be approved) in the United States of America. We are proud to confirm that Elana bv fulfills the quality requirements of ISO 13485:2003, ISO 13485:2003 CMDCAS and 21 CFR part 820 (QSR).

In today’s medical device industry many activities are outsourced to specialized companies and regulations do require that also these outsourced processes are under strict quality control of Elana as the ‘manufacturer’ of the medical devices. All Elana’s key subcontractor fulfill similarly these quality requirements by maintaining an ISO 9001:2000 or ISO 13485:2003 certified quality system and/or being in compliance with 21 CFR part 820.
