Understand how ANVISA regulations affect the registration of medical devices and in vitro diagnostics and how QR Group can help with compliance.

Brazil, the largest medical device market in Latin America, offers great growth opportunities for international manufacturers. However, the regulatory process for medical devices and in vitro diagnostic products requires detailed attention to ANVISA regulations. In this article, we explain how this process works and how QR Group can ensure that your company is fully compliant with Brazilian regulatory requirements.

Impacts of ANVISA Regulation on the Registration of Medical Devices

ANVISA (National Health Surveillance Agency) is responsible for regulating the marketing of medical devices in Brazil, which includes everything from simple equipment to high-risk products. To ensure consumer safety and product quality, ANVISA requires that all medical devices be registered or notified, depending on their risk classification.

In Brazil, medical devices are classified into four categories, according to the degree of risk they pose to the health of users:

• Class I and II: Low-risk devices, such as household items or non-invasive equipment. For these products, the regulatory process is simpler and involves only notification to ANVISA.

• Class III and IV: Higher-risk devices, such as surgical equipment and invasive devices. These products require a comprehensive registration process, with more rigorous safety and efficacy assessment.
