Which regulatory registries list St. Jude Medical, Inc.’s devices?

St. Jude Medical, Inc.’s devices are listed in the FDA’s Unique Device Identifier (UDI) database. The UDI system is used to track and identify medical devices throughout their distribution and use, ensuring better monitoring of device performance, safety, and compliance. This registry helps healthcare providers, regulators, and manufacturers maintain accurate records of device information.

How are St. Jude Medical, Inc.’s devices classified under regulatory frameworks?

St. Jude Medical, Inc.’s devices are classified into three regulatory categories: Class I, Class II, and Class III. Class I devices generally pose the lowest risk, such as simple tools or reusable cables. Class II devices require special controls to ensure safety and effectiveness, like certain vascular guide-catheters. Class III devices, which include high-risk products like mechanical heart valve prostheses and cardiac defect occluders, require pre-market approval due to their significant risk potential and lack of less risky alternatives.

What kinds of devices in St. Jude Medical, Inc.’s portfolio are used in open-heart surgeries?

St. Jude Medical, Inc. manufactures devices specifically designed for open-heart surgeries, including mitral and tricuspid annuloplasty rings.
