ISO 8537 Insulin Syringe Functional Performance Testing
The ISO 8537 standard provides a comprehensive framework for evaluating the functional performance of insulin syringes. This service ensures that medical devices meet the stringent requirements set forth by international standards, which is crucial for ensuring patient safety and efficacy.
Our laboratory employs advanced equipment to simulate real-world conditions under which insulin syringes are used. The testing process involves multiple stages, including initial inspection of each syringe for visual defects, followed by functional performance tests that assess the delivery of insulin accurately and consistently. These tests include plunging the plunger with a specified force and measuring the resulting injection volume to ensure it falls within acceptable limits.
The accuracy of these tests is paramount; any deviation from the expected results can have severe implications for patient care. Our team uses ISO 8537-1:2019 as our primary reference document, ensuring that all testing adheres strictly to international best practices. This standard outlines specific procedures and acceptance criteria designed to identify defects in the mechanical performance of insulin syringes.
Our service also includes thorough documentation of each test conducted, providing clients with detailed reports that outline results alongside compliance with ISO 8537 standards. Additionally, we offer advice on how to address any discrepancies found during testing, helping manufacturers improve their products before they reach the market.
