31、is part of ISO 10993 is intended to present the general principles on which the specific material investigations to identify and quantify degradation products described in ISO 10993-13 (polymers), ISO 10993-14 (ceramics) and ISO 10993-15 (metals and alloys) are based. Information obtained from these
32、 studies is intended to be used in the biological evaluations described in the remaining parts of ISO 10993. The materials used to construct medical devices can form degradation products when exposed to the biological environment, and in the body these products might behave differently to the bulk m
33、aterial. Mechanical wear causes mostly particulate debris, whereas the release of substances from surfaces due to leaching, chemical breakdown of structures or corrosion can lead to free ions or to different kinds of reaction products in the form of organic or inorganic compounds. The degradation pr
34、oducts can be either reactive or stable and without biochemical reaction with their environment. Accumulations of substantial quantities of stable degradation products can, however, have physical effects on the surrounding tissues. Degradation products might remain at the location of their generatio
35、n or might be transported within the biological environment by various mechanisms. The level of biological tolerability of degradation products depends on their nature and concentration, and should be primarily assessed through clinical experience and focused studies. For theoretically possible, new
36、 and/or unknown degradation products, relevant testing is necessary. For well-described and clinically accepted degradation products, no further investigation may be necessary. Note that the safety and efficacy of a medical device can be compromised as a result of degradation, and the degradation sh
37、ould be considered in the risk management of the device. 4 DIN EN ISO 10993-9:2010-04 EN ISO 10993-9:2009 (E) 1 Scope This part of ISO 10993 provides general principles for the systematic evaluation of the potential and observed biodegradation of medical devices and for the design and performance of
38、 biodegradation studies. Information obtained from these studies can be used in the biological evaluation described in the ISO 10993 series. This part of ISO 10993 considers both non-resorbable and resorbable materials. This part of ISO 10993 is not applicable to: a) evaluation of degradation which
39、occurs by purely mechanical processes; methodologies for the production of this type of degradation product are described in specific product standards, where available; NOTE 1 Purely mechanical degradation causes mostly particulate matter. Although this is excluded from the scope of this part of IS
40、O 10993, such degradation products can evoke a biological response and thus need to undergo biological evaluation as described in other parts of ISO 10993. b) leachable components which are not degradation products; c) medical devices or components that do not contact the patients body directly or i
41、ndirectly. NOTE 2 This part of ISO 10993 can be applied to the degradation of materials used in any kind of product that falls within the definition of “medical device” in ISO 10993-1, even if such products are subject to different regulations from those applying to medical devices, e.g. the scaffol
42、d in a tissue engineered medical product, or a carrier matrix to deliver drugs or biologics. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
