Abstract:
Medical devices is a crucial to modern medicine because they aid in the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of a wide range of medical conditions. The effectiveness, biocompatibility, and risks of the devices need to be validated in animals before they could be successfully and safely implemented in clinical practice. In this preclinical evaluation stage, animal models continue to act as an essential bridge between in vitro experiments and human clinical trials. The basic biocompatibility tests and the significance of using animals in medical device testing are discussed in this communication.
