In milieu of this resemblance of device globally, International Organization for Standard (ISO) has issued a standard, ISO 13485. This article is made to furnish the details about ISO 13485 and the Quality management system followed by United States manufacturer’s to market their devices within the country, i.e., 21 CFR Part 820.
