Implant and device manufacturers are increasingly facing the
challenge of proving that their products are safe and
biocompatible, and that they will perform as expected.
Biocompatibility and performance of medical devices provides an
essential guide to the performance analysis of these vital devices.
Part one introduces the key concepts and challenges faced in
relation to biocompatibility in medical devices, with consideration
of biological safety evaluation planning and biomechanical and
biochemical compatibility in innovative biomaterials. Part two goes
on to discuss the evaluation and characterisation of
biocompatibility in medical devices. Topics covered include
material and chemical characterisation, allowable limits for toxic
leachables, in vivo and in vitro testing and blood compatibility
assessment. Testing and interpreting medical device performance is
the focus of part three, with chapters describing preclinical
performance studies for bone, dental and soft tissue implants, and
mechanical testing of soft and hard tissue implants. Part four
provides information on the regulation of medical devices in the
European Union, Japan and China, and the book concludes with part
five, a review of histopathology principles for biocompatibility
and performance studies.
With its distinguished editor and international team of expert
contributors, Biocompatibility and performance of medical devices
is a vital tool for all those involved in the research, design,
production and application of medical devices, including research
directors, production companies and medical regulatory agencies, as
well as industry professionals and academics.
Examines the key concepts and challenges faced in relation to
biocompatibility in medical devicesDiscusses evaluation and
characterisation issues, including material and chemical
characterization, allowable limits for toxic leachables, in vivo
and in vitro testing, and blood compatibility assessmentDelivers a
